The Programme
Home
Dir. Peter Peake
Home' tells a story about how child refugees feel and what it's like to be separated from friends, family, and school in a new and unfamiliar setting.
Tourist Trap
Dir. Vera van Wolferen
Tourist cars flood an uninhabited paradise island to the point of no return.
Honeycake
Dir. Cristina Conde Tkatchenko
London is a melting pot of cultures. Behind each door is a different story - and food becomes the thread that ties immigrants, or first-generation Brits, to back home. Honeycake explores the perspective of a Ukrainian mother's experience in moving to a new country.
Boulés
Dir. Tom Norman Griffin
An entirely screen printed animation based around audio I recorded in Paris whilst observing a group of French men playing the game boules
Scent of Geranium
Dir. Naghmeh Farzaneh
Immigration is a new chapter in one's life, a chapter with unexpected events that can take one's life down paths different from the one imagined. This film is an autobiographical account of the director's experience with immigration.
