Celebration Launch
The celebration launch and screening of the first two films for WORLDwrite’s London Behind the Scenes project will take place at:
The new Vibe Lounge
91-95 Brick Lane
London, E1
on Sunday 20th April 2008
at 6pm
Two short documentaries, The More the Merrier and Cash Back, will be screened along with wine reception, canapés and guest speakers including Philippe Legrain, author of Immigrants: Your Country Needs Them.
The More the Merrier, set in St. Katherine’s Docks, lyrically interweaves historical archive with the desire of one young Indian woman to stay in the UK. The film presents a uniquely pro-immigration case based on positive arguments from the Battle of Ideas.
Cash Back, set in Brick Lane, highlights the scope of remittances — monies sent by migrants and diasporas to friends and families overseas. These outstrip aid and foreign direct investment and don’t have the strings attached.
