Weathering

2021 · 31 min

A quiet, sobering documentary that sits with two people's testimony, letting personal pain and systemic injustice land with steady, unhurried weight.

Overview
Weathering intertwines the deeply personal stories of two Black key workers as they reveal their experiences of racism in the UK. The film explores the impact of the UK government-imposed Covid-19 lockdowns, and the worldwide anti-racism movement which grew after the murder of George Floyd. Both events have acted as a magnifying glass for the inequalities that exist within British society.
