Created by choreographer and storyteller Akeim Toussaint Buck, filmmaker Ashley Karrell, animator Benedetta Fasson and writer mandla rae, Reckoning blends contemporary dance, spoken word and digital animation to depict the stories of generations of displaced people captured in the Reckoning with Refugeedom research led by the University of Manchester. Join Akeim Toussaint Buck to watch the film and a short live work-in-progress performance, and hear more about the project in a Q&A session.

Produced by ArtReach for Liberty EU at Journeys Festival International, with funding from the Arts and Humanities Research Council and the Creative Europe Programme of the European Union. Supported by the University of Manchester.
