Deserted is a series of short films based on different encounters with the forgotten Saharawi people of Western Sahara
Mon 18th August, 7.30pm Price: £8.00
Followed by photography presentation and Q&A with director Anna Evans-Freke and Danielle Smith (founder of Sandblast www.sandblast-arts.org)
Deserted is a series of short films based on different encounters with the forgotten Saharawi people of Western Sahara – a territory in north-west Africa that is subject of a decades long dispute between Morocco and the Algerian backed Polisario Front.
Filmmaker Anna Evans-Freke spent months talking to the Saharawi people gaining an insight into their world and their lives. They share their culture, memories, hopes and fears.
“When I visited the camps it was almost exactly 30 years since the conflict began and I was fascinated in how a people could survive 30 years of exile and uncertainty. I wanted to understand what kept them going and why?”
- Anna Evans-Freke
