Weekend plans? Watch OUR LAND, now showing in selected cinemas across the UK!

I’m immensely proud of my friends @orbanwallace @leofilmsound @jamiewolfeld @aliceaedy having made such a triumphant, vital documentary exploring our evolving relationship to landscape and the urgent need to rebuild meaningful connections with the land around us.

@our_land_documentary dares to tread where few have trespassed before, asking the timely question of who has the right to roam in the English countryside? The UK is a wild and beautiful place, but the vast majority of it is off limits to the general public, with 92% of land and 97% of all rivers in England not legally accessible. At the same time, it is a landscape shaped by centuries of inheritance and tradition, with land held and cared for by families across multiple generations.

OUR LAND takes us to the heart of the @right.2roam movement as it embarks on a provocative trail of mass trespass, campaigning and education, while also exploring landowners’ concerns around environmental protection and the danger such widespread access could pose to a landscape already under threat.
