An Act of Life
A short film written and directed by Vanessa Oakes
Filmmaker Dom Breadmore
A response to the search for a lasting memorial to the millions of people who died during WW1 - written for an ensemble cast of 21 young people from King Edward VI College, Nuneaton.
In An Act of Life the dead are present as part of the contemporary landscape. As generations move forward the meaning of traditional memorials inevitably changes. What doesn’t change is the presence of the living memorials all around us. The performing arts students in this film are all living memorials to the millions of young people who lost their lives.
Commissioned by Nuneaton & Bedworth Borough Council as part of the Fit for Heroes exhibition at Nuneaton Museum & Art Gallery -
funded by Nuneaton & Bedworth Borough Council, Museums, Libraries and Archives Council and The Big Lottery.
