We are a group of MA Film Making students making a documentary about two men named Josef who escaped religious and political persecution.
One of the men, Josef Herman fled the persecution of the anti-Semitic regimes in Europe in the 1930s. He came to the UK and became a successful artist and his work is exhibited in museums and galleries around the world including the Tate.
Our other Joseph is a political activist who fled persecution from his home in the Ivory Coast. He fled to Cardiff and is working with different charities to teach asylum seekers and refugees English and Welsh, he himself is fluent in 8 languages!
Our aim is to show the similarities between these two cases despite being from different eras, religions and political views, linked by by one constant: Persecution.
Four MA Film Making Students from the UK, Iran, India and China.
We need funding because we're students who have a very interesting story to tell and want to do it justice.
