Document 2019 Critical Forum: Collaborative Research and/as Creative Practice - Storytelling through Filmmaking and Curation

Fri 25 October 2019

Critical Forum

This year’s Critical Forum focuses on research as/and creative and collaborative practice. Researchers who are also filmmakers and curators, who worked on stories that interrogate local and global issues, will share their experience and reflections on making or curating films on human rights. Join us for a discussion on storytelling, ethics and the challenges of getting projects off the ground.


The event will start with an illustrated talk and work in progress showcase of Freedom to Run, a running and cultural exchange project and documentary focusing on the restrictions on freedom of movement that Palestinians face by running marathons in Palestine and Scotland. The presentation is led by Cairsti Russell (PhD candidate, University of Glasgow) and will include
exclusive clips and stories behind the making of the film.


This will be followed by short presentations and a panel discussion on collaborative, participatory filmmaking, curation and research with Oisin Kealy (PhD candidate, University of Glasgow, exploring Human Rights Film Festivals in the Global South), Ian McDonald (documentary filmmaker and Reader in Film Practice at Newcastle University) and Lucy Parker (documentary filmmaker and Senior Lecturer at Kingston University London).


Facilitated by Alexandra Colta with the support of the Collaborative Research Award – College of Arts, University of Glasgow.
