Date -
Thursday 21st October 2010 - 7pm to 8.30pm approx
(doors open 6.30pm)
We aim to highlight the plight of refugee and asylum seeking youth who
come to London. These young people are keen to enter education, learn
English and work hard, but often they are denied the opportunity because
of the system. They get labelled as adults when they are not and then
detained in adult facilities and denied the education and support they
need.
'Asylum' -
Asylum is a short film dedicated to the children of Afghanistan, Iraq,
Iran and other areas of human conflict. Asylum seeking young people are
enabled to tell their own painful stories through dramatic
reconstructions, art and music. This is not a performance, it is a
communication and we show how we can work together to a positive future.
Asylum is a non-profit charitable production.
