As part of the Raise Your Banners Festival we are putting on a short series of films with the 1-in-12 Club on Tuesday 3rd and Wednesday 4th November. For licensing purposes you have to join the film club to watch the films. To join the film club simply come along to our first showing on Tuesday 3rd November at the 1-in-12, Albion Street for the showing of I Know I'm Not Alone.

I know I'm Not Alone

Michael Franti, world-renowned musician and human rights worker, travels to Iraq, Palestine and Israel to explore the human cost of war with a group of friends, some video cameras and his guitar.

A compelling soundtrack, visual and musical montages, and Franti's intimate voiceovers make the film speak to the MTV, X, Y & Z generations, as well as the baby-boomers. You feel the humanity, artistic resilience and sometimes horrific experience of what it's like to live under the bombs and military occupation.

With its guerrilla style footage captured in active war zones, the documentary offers the audience the opportunity to hear the voices of everyday people living, creating and surviving under the harsh conditions of war and occupation.
