Childhood Memories of VE Day (8 May 1945) | Digital Drama Home Front Film | VE Day 75

Описание: Home Front Film: VE Day

Supported by a grant from the National Lottery Heritage Fund, Digital Drama trained 35 volunteers across London to deliver reminiscence and recording workshops to gather the memories of 90 older residents in 6 London boroughs of Camden, Ealing, Hounslow, Kingston, Croydon and Merton. Working with the Heritage and Archive departments of these 6 boroughs, Digital Drama have edited WW2 childhood memories together with the archive footage to create 4 new films themed Digging for Victory, Bombs & the Blitz, Evacuation and VE Day.
