Newlyn Harbour documentary:
A Newlyn harbour, a short documentary film made by Saeed Taji Farouky
The film Synopsis:
Newlyn Harbour is a short experimental documentary exploring the southern village of Newlyn, the UK's largest fishing harbour. With the fishing industry in a crisis, Newlyn is struggling to survive in its current state. Local organisations have responded with plans for major commercialisation and modernisation. But what if the project to save Newlyn ends up killing the very thing it set out to protect? Newlyn Harbour reflects director Saeed Taji Farouky's outsider impressions of the experiences.
The competition for young film makers is sponsored by the CoOperative - closing date for entires was November 30th 2009. We wish Saeed luck!
