North Birmingham Community Arts Films Oct 2007

The short 4 minute film shows NBCA's grant year and it shows NBCA's connections with the Phoenix centre . It shows where we have been and where we are going still . We make the films and the "Mad Planet" one shows what its like to go through the personal star doors and come out through the other sides ... Oh yes there's always more than one side to things .. Warm blesses to everyone ..
