A event held at Watershed on Thursday 13th March. The event starts at 17:30.
A lonely Portuguese migrant working as a picker in a Scottish warehouse struggles to forge connections in an immersive character study that shines light on the precarity of modern employment.
Writer/director Laura Carreira immerses us in the life of Aurora (Joana Santos) in this moving character study. Aurora's workdays are dictated by the bleep of a machine and her evenings are strained by loneliness in shared accommodation as she dreams of securing a better job.
On Falling is an empathetic social realist snapshot that offers a window into the financial precariousness of the gig economy, delivered with a lightness of touch that stresses the importance of everyday connection.
This screening will be followed by a Thought in Action discussion. Thought in Action is a film screening and discussion series co-organised by Watershed and UWE Philosophy, Politics, and International Relations.
