Barnet film to storm Edinburgh

A Tale of Two Barnets, an anti-cuts film made with the support of UNISON’s Barnet branch will today show at the Edinburgh festival.

The film premiered in March in Barnet – after receiving plaudits from film director Ken Loach.

Filmmaker Charles Honderick spent six months interviewing people around the London borough and has made a film that is powerful, moving and funny.

The branch says that it’s evidence of the work that it has done with community groups and residents, “that they felt empowered enough to want to make this film and stand up for public services”.

The film will show at Douglas House, 60 Belford Road, Edinburgh EH4 3UQ at 6pm with a reception from 5pm.
