The clips are intended to be viewed individually or in collections of two or three. This is not a documentary, it is a chance to glimpse the lives of people who are directly impacted without judgment and without filtering. The clips will be freely available online and are designed to be short enough for video streaming directly from the site.
They will also be available for film screenings to be shown as shorts before feature presentations. The clips will be made available to organisations and individuals who wish to screen them and can be used in film nights, street events, stalls, installations, stage events, websites, radio shows, podcasting, articles.... a multitude of methods flexible enough for many creative uses and diverse media.
