World Premiere 2pm Saturday 5 November 2005
Glasgow Film Theatre, 12 Rose St, Glasgow
Free but ticketed.
Imagine escaping persecution in your own country, only to be locked up without trial in Dungavel. According to Amnesty International, the UK detains an estimated 25,000 asylum seekers every year: men, women and children. Camcorder Guerillas believes that asylum is a right, not a crime.
Using documentary, testimony, animation, original music and drama, Visit Dungavel: Monster of the Glen (25 mins), is a shocking, funny, informative and moving series of short films about detention - and, since this is a Camcorder Guerilla film - what to do about it!
There will be an open mike session after the film on 5 November, with organisations and individuals involved in supporting detainees and those facing deportation, invited to speak.
Copies of the film on DVD and video will be available at the screening for awareness raising, education and campaigning.
And many, many thanks to those who have already supported us, enabling us to make the film.
