Disabled LGBT and want to have your 15 minutes of fame? This is your chance to be part of the making of a film in Manchester about disabled people accessing the village.
As part of their our ongoing work with Manchester City Council, Full Circle Arts are looking to interview people for a short docufilm being made to promote issues around being LGBT/disabled and accessing Manchester's gay village. The premise of the film is to hear/learn about people's experiences of the village, and being LGBT and disabled. Whatever you think, whatever you feel this will be a totally free and uncensored forum for you to air your stories.
You can be filmed at your convenience, at a location in or around the village and the filming must be completed by September 2008. Expenses will be covered. The film will be shown towards the end of 2008 and you will also be invited to the launch event. If you feel you may be interested in getting involved in this project please get in contact via phone, text or email. |
