Description
Close Knit is an animated documentary co-produced by animator Sheryl Jenkins, filmmaker Amanda Loomes and sound artist Alison Carlier working with community groups in South East Northumberland. The film reflects the diversity of life that shapes the culture and heritage of the area. We have been visiting the area over the last year, collecting stories and listening to what people have to tell us about life in the North East. This has fed into the soundtrack for the film. It has been a real privilege to work on this truly co-produced project.
