Showcasing 11 short documentaries which creatively touch on the themes of community and individuality in places as varied as the idyllic English countryside, a Comic Convention, a market, student societies in Canterbury, home, Circus performance and a therapeutic farm in Wales.
The event is a celebration of our students creativity and use of visual anthropology to engage proactively and profoundly on themes they are passionate about.
We are very happy to welcome back Professor Hugh Brody and David Pick, both eminent filmmakers, who will award prizes in their name. There is also an audience prize voted on by those who have seen all the films.
