ROOTS

If we were able to trace our ancestors beyond the neat branches of our immediate family trees, we would find something more like a mesh of interwoven roots spreading all across the world. This film tells the story of us all, whether we come from a family that's stayed in the same area for generations, or have travelled half way around the world in search of somewhere safe to live. 

This short stop-motion animation uses music, words and images to explore questions like these. Suitable for all age groups.

Animation by Rosie Wyllie
