BEHIND THE HOODS
2005, 13 mins

A film exploring older people’s fear of young people in the London Borough of Sutton.

It aims to reduce fear by increasing understanding of young people and their needs and dispel the myth that most young people are responsible for crime and anti-social behaviour.

This film is part of a wider intergenerational project that took place in January-April 2005 involving consultation with older and younger people, as well as community services.
