Refugee Week Southampton – A community celebration – Film Screenings
WEDNESDAY 19th June 7pm MAST Mayflower Studios, Southampton
Film Screenings on the powerful theme of Our Home, and Q&A.
Each story of migration is different, but every person arriving on our shores shares feelings of loss and fragmentation; while the hope of building a life here can often coexist with the desire to return home one day.
– My Fair Share Too: A film by World Stages Now (30m). Based on real life stories, it explores the experience of living where your heritage can sometimes make the process of belonging hard.
Films curated by Other Cinemas
– I Carry it With Me Everywhere, dir. Arwa Aburawa and Turab Shah (18m 47s). The film looks at multiple experiences of immigrant life, uniting three different stories of migration to London, from the Punjab, Syria and Jamaica.
– Little Pyongyang, dir. Roxy Rezvany (24m). With exclusive access to one of the world’s largest community of North Korean defectors, it’s a tale of the struggle of one North Korean living in a London suburb to leave behind his homeland, the tension lying in his desire to return to the land that betrayed him.
From 28th May you’ll be able to get a free ticket here
