Refugee Week 2020 – Calendar of Events
Dear friends, we have the pleasure of inviting you to the next film screening.
On Wednesday 20th November 2019, from 7pm to 9pm, in collaboration with the Brighthelm Centre, the Earth Church and No Hate Speech UK Network, we will be screening the documentary “True Cost” at the ground floor auditorium at the Brighthelm Centre (North Road, Brighton, BN1 1YD).
“True Cost” is a groundbreaking documentary that reveals the devastating effects of the global fashion industry on the environment and human rights. Directed by Andrew Morgan, the documentary investigates the dark side of the “fast fashion” industry: from the culture of consumerism in mass media, to environmental pollution and workers exploitation. Realised trough a crowdfunding campaign and premiered at Cannes Film Festival 2015, the film features a carefully put together collage of interviews with activists, garment workers, factory owners and fair trade entrepreneurs.
After the film, we will invite our audience to an open discussion on community initiatives to promote environmental sustainability and social equity in fashion.
Language: English
Running time: 92 minutes.
Doors will be open from 6.30pm onwards.
Best wishes from all of us here.
#Love #Peace and #Solidarity,
Euro-Mernet team
