Hostile screened with the City of Sanctuary UK 🧡 on Wednesday. It was powerful to bring so many cities across the UK together, and discuss issues that are important to everyone. She joined Loraine Masiya Mponela for a Q&A afterwards. Find out where to watch Hostile: hostiledocumentary.com

This terrible tragedy shows the desperate measures that people are forced to take as they flee from war, persecution or poverty. All countries should work together to create safe routes so that people are not forced to make these dangerous journeys. Video Credit: Sky News

Incredibly distressing to see the Illegal Migration Bill pass in the House of Lords last night. It will cause immeasurable suffering to innocent people. Everyone should read Enver Solomon 🧡 comment piece on this heartless legislation #hostileenvironment

Following the Illegal Migration Bill passage comes news that refugees from Honduras and Namibia must have visas to enter the UK. The gov says they want to stop people smugglers, yet are restricting all other safe ways to claim asylum. Article The i paper: bit.ly/3O4WBOF

Last week, Hostile played in Devon, as part of the prestigious Byline Festival, organised by @thebylinetimes. Dir. Sonita Gale joined for a Q&A after with @caolanrobertson. Read about the screening on our website: hostiledocumentary.com

Disturbing news: India's police have arrested 74 Rohingya refugees. This is what the ‘hostile environment’ looks like, impacting vulnerable communities seeking safety. bit.ly/3OvYB3R

Very saddening to read about the passing of Jess Search, Co-Founder and CEO of the TheDocSociety. She was an inspiration to Dir Sonita Gale when it came to impact campaigning, and using film as a force to change the world for the better.

We are excited to share the Hostile Impact Report, a summary of months of dedicated impact campaigning against the ‘hostile environment.’ The film has achieved so much, and the campaign isn’t over yet. You can read the report here: drive.google.com/file/d/1NPiT5B…

Last week we caught @iamdeepamehta's powerful film I AM SIRAT BFI #LondonFilmFestival. Unfortunately on the same day Rishi Sunak used his platform at the Conservative Party Conference to minimise the experience of trans communities. #HostileEnvironment
