A commission by Jewish Lives, Scottish Spaces – a research project funded by the Arts and Humanities Research Council and joint project between the Universities of Edinburgh and Glasgow to produce four short films.
The series is entitled ‘Points of Arrival’ and each three-minute film concentrates on a historical Jewish immigrant to Scotland – where they came from, when and how they arrived, and their subsequent life here. Their stories are told by contemporary narrators, whose own lives resonate strongly with their subject matter.
