Begging For It
Douglas Fenwick
Barry Lansdon

UK | 2008 | 22 mins

In response to New Labour's ASBO legislation, this film was made as part of a London-based social exclusion project devised to enable participants to have ownership of their own stories.

A frank insight into the reality of begging on the streets of London, Begging For It portrays the stories of Peter, Paul and Mark, three men of different ages and backgrounds, juxtaposing their common experience on the streets. This film insightfully veers between the tragic reality of begging and the heart and humour that against all odds still beats within each man.

Living On The Landing
Sabine Zimmer
Sandra Budesheim
Germany 2008 / 31 Mins

For twelve years, Monika, a woman who would "officially" be considered homeless, has been living on the top landing of a Berlin residential building. This is where she sleeps, spends her time and has furnished a little home for herself. To her, the landing is a place that provides security, a place she has chosen for herself and a place she knows inside out - in a nutshell, a proper home.
