Press Release 11th May 2017
Sidmouth Coastal Community Hub CIC
“Working the Sea” –
film premiere at Sidmouth Sea Fest
Sidmouth’s fishing past comes alive in a stunning new film
seen through the lens of the Bagwells, the last fishing family in
Sidmouth. “Working the Sea” connects
community and coast beautifully, weaving Sidmouth’s fishing heritage through
the narrative of a very resilient family through to present day users of the
sea. Connecting the role of Sidmouth
Lifeboat to the vibrant and growing use of the sea as a “playground” through
Sidmouth’s Gig Club, Sailing Club and Surf Life Saving Club, this 40 minute film
tells a powerful and inspiring story.
Louise Cole, one of the four Directors of Sidmouth Coastal
Community Hub who commissioned the film working with award winning Butterfly
Effect Films, said;
“The film, it is stunning, the footage of Sidmouth is
beautiful from perspectives that people don’t get to see. The story of the Bagwell family and
Sidmouth’s fishing heritage is fascinating and inspiring, funny and humbling
and I love how it connects with the way that people both respect and enjoy the
sea today. It’s a powerful reminder of
how lucky we are on the coast. Our
Director of Photography Simon and Writer and Producer Jo Stewart-Smith of
Butterfly Effect Films have produced a beautiful, high quality well-crafted
film which has a great sense of community.”
“Working the sea” funded by East Devon AONB and the Sid Vale
Association, is to be screened at Sidmouth Sea Fest Variety Night which follows
the free daytime annual coastal community celebration Sidmouth Sea Fest on
Saturday 13th May, on the Ham, Sidmouth. The evening programme also includes a
Smugglers Play, and live music from Anna Hamill, CaveMouth and Zak Robinson.
The festival includes local coastal organisations many of
which are featured in the film, alongside Creativity on the Coast activities
for all and local food and drink.
