"One of the most granular depictions of modern Scottish life I have ever seen" Pat Kane
A new 'fly-on-the-wall' documentary set in 2014 reveals the emotional impact the independence referendum had on one family, in one small town in Scotland as it tours the country... 10 years after the vote.
Shot in the intense summer of 2014, by award winning director, Jane McAllister, TO SEE OURSELVES is an observational, deeply personal account of the independence referendum as seen through the eyes of a pregnant filmmaker, as she follows her idealist father’s relentless activism and reveals the heart behind the politics during this historic crossroads for Scotland.
Full details of the tour can be found on the film’s website www.toseeourselves.film
