Barefoot Journey

Here’s a short film made with Hannah Fox, commissioned by 509 Arts with Lottery funding. We worked with young people from Gillamoor Primary School on the edge of the North Yorkshire moors to create a short film. The children walked from school over the moors to the Ryedale Folk Museum. A week later, we returned to help them create characters and a story drawn from their experience of the walk. The film was being screened daily at The Ryedale Folk Museum during Summer. http://web.dreamtimefilm.co.uk/latest/
