This short film is the response to the themes of #Haters by young participants (aged 11 to 14) to Hoxton Youth Arts programme, Hackney, London 2019.
The group identified social inequalities as one of the issues affecting Hackney. They agreed that homelessness is a clear and visible sign of social inequalities they all encounter daily. After sharing stories, the group acted and rehearsed them, developing story boards. They directed and recorded the sound. The short was entirely filmed using their phones’ cameras and professional sound recording.
