Cinemagic’s Claire Shaw and young reviewers Rosa Scott and Charlotte Cleary are joined by documentary filmmaker Suzanne Crocker, to talk about new film FIRST WE EAT that screened at Cinemagic 2021. FIRST WE EAT: Putting food sovereignty to the test in the far North of Canada – filmmaker Suzanne Crocker, living just 300 km from the Arctic Circle, removes absolutely all grocery store food from her house. For one year, she feeds her family of five, only food that can be hunted, fished, gathered, grown or raised around Dawson City, Yukon on the traditional territory of the Tr’ondëk Hwëch’in. Add three sceptical teenagers, one reluctant husband, no salt, no caffeine, no sugar and -40 temperatures. Ultimately the story becomes a celebration of community and the surprising bounty of food that even a tiny community in the far North can provide. #QandA #WorldCinema #Film #Documentary CINEMAGIC ON SOCIAL Follow - https://www.facebook.com/CinemagicFestival Follow - http://www.Twitter.com/Cinemagic Follow - https://www.instagram.com/cinemagic_filmfestival/ https://www.cinemagic.org.uk​ (website) https://filmfestival.cinemagic.org.uk/​ (festival player) SIGN UP TO OUR NEWSLETTER - https://cinemagic.org.uk/newsletter

In episode 3 of 'Cinostalgia' Liam is joined by Rosa Scott to talk about the 2017 Oscar nominated animation - THE BREADWINNER. Based on the best-selling children’s novel by Deborah Ellis, THE BREADWINNER tells the story of 11 year old Parvana who gives up her identity to provide for her family and try to save her father’s life. Parvana’s father Nurullah had told stories about history and imagination to Parvana as she helped him in the marketplace of Taliban controlled Kabul in the year 2001. When he is arrested Parvana finds the courage to look for him when everyone else had given up hope. She becomes a storyteller, remembering a brother she has once known. Every day is a challenge as Parvana tries to bring home enough food and water to support her mother, sister and little brother. She meets a fellow girl in disguise called Shauzia and together, they form a bond that will give them the strength to endure the war that comes to their doorstep in the Fall of 2001. THE BREADWINNER is a celebration of children – for children, whatever their age, wherever they live. Cinostalgia is a new video series which takes a retrospective look at past international films that continue to entertain and resonate with audiences today. Devised and produced by young content creator Liam Gadd. #thebreadwinner #animation #cinostalgia #youtubechannel #youtube #youtuber #youtubers #subscribe #youtubevideos #sub #youtubevideo #like LIAM ON SOCIAL Twitter - http://www.Twitter.com/LGadd13 Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/liamgadd96 CINEMAGIC ON SOCIAL Follow - https://www.facebook.com/CinemagicFestival Follow - http://www.Twitter.com/Cinemagic Follow - https://www.instagram.com/cinemagic_filmfestival/ https://www.cinemagic.org.uk​ (website) https://filmfestival.cinemagic.org.uk/​ (festival player) SIGN UP TO OUR NEWSLETTER - https://cinemagic.org.uk/newsletter
