Dear Colleague
Award winning film writer/director, Liz Crow is looking for film extras
to be in her latest production, set in 1940’s Germany during the second
world war.
It’s an exciting opportunity to be part of a professional film
production unit, working alongside a professional disabled director and
a mixture of professional actors. Shooting the week of 9th June in the
Bristol area.
We are looking for about 7 DISABLED people between the age of 18 and 90
to be background artists. All body shapes welcomed, but you must be of
slim build. (You will most likely be needed Monday 9th, Tuesday 10th,
Wednesday 11th).
We are also looking for 10 non disabled people to play the parts of
staff members at a party. (You will be needed on Wednesday 11th and
Friday 13th.)
If you are interested please get in touch as soon as possible.
We need to see a picture of you. So get snapping and send us one:

We look forward to hearing from you.
In September 1939, Adolf Hitler signed a secret order authorising
Aktion T-4, a programme of systematic killing of a quarter of a million
disabled children and adults.
Incarcerated in institutions, it was close to impossible for disabled
people to resist. Yet some did. In doing so, they became an integral
part of the resistance that brought Aktion-T4 to an end.
Resistance is an installation that combines experimental drama and
documentary portraits with multi-sensory experience. Based on real
events, it brings to light a neglected period of history and
commemorates those lost to it. And, 70 years on, when the echoes of
Aktion-T4 can still be heard, it delivers a warning from the past.
