| Summary: | Verzio FF Submission
Duration: 00:50:00
Filmed over five years, the film follows UK campaign group The Peace Tax Seven as they fight to get the proportion of their taxes destined for military spending redirected to peaceful purposes. Placing conscientious objection in its historical and social context, the documentary combines striking visual archive with the engaging struggle of the Peace Tax Seven, taking us on a journey from the group’s inception, to the arrival of the bailiffs, through the British High Court and beyond. |
