Halifax Central Library is hosting a FREE and exciting Virtual Reality adventure. You’ll step in the shoes of a teenager reflecting on his time trapped in the stateless limbo of UK airport immigration – like Tom Hanks in that movie: The Terminal.
This Is Your Country Too is an interactive comedy adapted from a BBC Radio play. It’s a satire on the immigration system or how our identity is ultimately defined by strangers. It’s based on the experiences of post-colonial Asian migrants from East Africa, whose British citizenship was downgraded by the UK government in the 1960s in reaction to the sudden influx of thousands of non-white subjects.
