Join us for a special evening of cinema in support of Scottish Borders Rape Crisis Centre, raising vital funds to help us increase our provision of accessible, inclusive and trauma-informed support for survivors of sexual violence.
The Film
We’ll be screening Surviving Translation. This film takes an in-depth look at the ethics of translation services – focusing specifically on the traumatic experiences of female migrants.
Starting with Charlotte Bosseaux’s research, film director, cinematographer and editor, Ling Lee, alongside Charlotte who co-created the film, captured intimate conversations with migrants and language professionals – weaving these together with poetic and evocative imagery to create an informative and moving study on this unexamined subject
After the film, we’ll be hosting a Q&A panel which will include:
- Ling Lee, Director and Co-Producer of the film,
- Dr Katy Proctor, Senior Lecturer in Gender, Violence, and Criminology (Zemiology)
- Susie Stein, CEO, Scottish Borders Rape Crisis Centre
Why Attend?
This is a great opportunity to enjoy a powerful and inspiring film while supporting a great cause.
Between 8th-15th October, we are taking part in the Big Give. This campaign enables us to double any funds raised during this time. All donations go directly to Scottish Borders Rape Crisis Centre.
Help us fund costs that can prevent survivors getting the support they need. Whether it’s to fund transport, childcare, interpreters, or anything else that makes accessing support easier.
