MESSAGE FROM BERNARD SULLIVAN

Dear Colleagues
This short and disturbing film was made by Anthony Butts, a dedicated film maker who is committed to raising awareness of the plight of Roma families deported back to Kosovo to a very uncertain and precarious future.

Latest Information:

Anthony Butts is now making a feature length observational documentary on Roma children deported from Germany in conjunction with the Guardian newspaper. Despite numerous media campaigns in Germany, children are still being deported into conditions like in this video. It must be stopped. The aim of this film is to create a powerful advocacy film as well as an emotionally searing documentary to be pitched at channels like ARTE.

The film will follow a family with children who he will meet in Germany and then follow their deportation to Kosovo, filming with the children for a period of about a year. As this will be filmed over a long period of time, this will be the first film to really show how deportation affects the children.
