Senior video producer John Domokos on a community-focused video series highlighting social issues facing Britons today
With Brexit, the pandemic and the lingering effects of de-industrialisation as a backdrop, the film follows three women as they try to turn around their own fortunes and those of their communities. For Rachel that is Doncaster, and its cultural scene. For Lindsay, that community is online as she fights back against bullying and discrimination, all while doing the underpaid and challenging work of being a carer. Pam is fighting for women’s pension rights, but beyond that, what is left of the old social settlement that you pay into the system and it looks after you. Collectively they embody the tensions and hopes of past and future, just as those are colliding in modern Britain.
