As a member of the Glasgow based Camcorder
Guerillas, and as a photographer, I had the pleasure of taking the stills
of our recent film shoot for our upcoming film Dungavel.
The location was one of the Anderston Tower Blocks, in Glasgow city
centre.
At Camcorder Guerillas, we believe that locking up refugees, including
children, in Dungavel Prison is an abuse of their human rights. We are
working with a number of refugee organisations to make a film to inform
people about Dungavel and inspire them to take action.
The 25-min film will take the viewer through a journey which explores
the issues, through a series of short linked "chapters" (which can also
function as stand-alone very short films).
“Chapters” are in different styles, from drama to testimony to
animation to poetry. We plan to finish this film by September 2005.
