So great when you’re working on a film for a few years and you finish it and able to put it out there and kick start the conversations that it was intended to catalyse. Foregrounding refugee voices and their treatment by the Home Office and focus on the structures of racism.

@ACORNunion will be on the picket lines all week in support of our @RMTunion brother and sisters on the railway.
An injury to one is an injury to all. A win for rail workers is a blow struck for all workers fighting for decent conditions. #ToryRailStrikes
Victory to the RMT!
A film we helped produce, ‘Dear Home Office’ is going to be released in June. Proud to have been part of this film about the asylum system through the voices and experience of asylum seekers and refugees. #shortfilm #RefugeesWelcome #Refugees watershed.co.uk/whatson/1133…
