Gareth Evan’s introduction
Looking at different kinds of moving image, different kinds of seeing and the context and the consequences of that different kind of seeing. This film today is absolutely part of that lineage, tradition, heritage of actuality now, so it’s great that it’s showing as part of the Cinema Nation strand.
I think it’s very, very important that this kind of image is celebrated. This kind of image, this kind of subject matter which we will come on to in the discussion afterwards. Very, very important subject matter given the crisis we face as a civilization at the moment. I think the Page family will tell us a lot about the direction we might need to take and the values we might need to rediscover to survive and hopefully to flourish.
