What happens when a human who wants to change the world meets a camera? This year, as part of our Exchange programme, alongside our free film programme, we’ve kickstarted a rebellion in the making of new work through a series of micro commissions and artist residencies.
We’re launching each commission in the lead up to a 3-day celebration of screenings, conversations and workshops to share learning from online and community exchanges.
Open and free to all, this public celebration runs in parallel with our Rebellions strand as part of our Autumn programme in Sheffield.
The commissions are with: NeuroLove in partnership with Raising Films Sail for Climate Action Israac and The Diaspora Multimedia Hub Three artists residencies, featuring Farzana Khan of Healing Justice London and an international exchange between artists, Suzie Larke (UK) andTsoku Maela (South Africa), developed in partnership with Unlimited.
Thanks to the generous support of Wellcome Trust all films in The Exchange programme can be accessed free of charge.

Israac Somali Community Association was originally established in 1981 by a group of Somali seamen who worked in the steel industry and their families.
Sail for Climate Action is an international platform of young people from Latin America and the Caribbean seeking to share their stories and raise the voices of young people affected by the climate crisis.
