Screening of the short film 'Unauthorised Absence', directed by Georgia Parris, to raise awareness of the challenges many families face.
The Hub is screening Unauthorised Absence on Tuesday 10 November, from 6.30pm to 8pm. It's a short film directed by Georgia Parris and written by Jo Clayton, and the organisers describe it as addressing real-life family struggles.
The screening is framed as a way for the community, families and professionals to come together and get a better handle on the challenges many families face, while raising awareness and encouraging positive change. It's not a light watch, though. The film is rated 12A and contains distressing scenes, themes of threat and depictions of self-harm. Because of that, support networks will be on hand throughout the evening to help anyone who finds the content distressing.
