This Sunday at 7.30pm the 19th of October PhotoMonth will screen 'Wayfaring Stranger' by the great Andrea Luka Zimmerman at the HHackney Picturehouseon Mare st, please come along for this special event which has an in conversation with the director Andrea Zimmerman and Tom Hunter and a Q&A from the audience
Wayfaring Stranger charts the life of an itinerant character, embodied by seven per formers, across seven days, representing seven decades. Running from the city, through post-industrial edge lands and manicured enclaves, they find themselves in forests, farms, mountains and the shore. Along the way, they undergo a transformation, through the seasons and changing geography, both physically and emotionally, from youth to elderhood, and from a single, alienated being into an accepted element of the wider world. Each ‘day ’ is a ‘station’ that signifies a turning point in a character’s emotional development : from escape, through loss, grief and waywardness, to solidarity and co-existence.
PhotoMonth celebrates photography in all in forms throughout in the month of October. In addition to exhibitions, talks and workshops, photomonth will screen films by photographers who are working in both mediums and take their art to the big screen. Every screening will be followed by in conversations with the film directors and producers and Tom Hunter from Photomonth.

From our Open Call, "Raising Doron" by Thomas Dreyden-Kelsey.

"Out of the 12 million children living in England, just under 400,000 (3%) are in the social care system at anyone time. More than 82,000 of these children are children in care. My wife and I chose to adopt from localauthorities.

After years of trying for a family, my wife and I decided on the route of adoption as the path that wouldlead us to be finally being parents. The adoption training, approval and matching process was long,arduous and uncertain. It was tough and made us think deeply about the kind of parents we hoped to be.

The long journey of the adoption process has concluded in the happiest way and the joy of Raising Doronhas begun. We have been lucky enough to have adopted our son's brother later in our journey".
