Migrant Sound: Arrival
- Alternative title
- Arrival
- Synopsis
- Short documentary exploring the impact of migration and music 70 years after Windrush. ARRIVAL fast forwards viewers straight from the arrival of the first generation of Caribbean immigrants to the UK to this year’s Windrush scandal, showing the repeated challenges they have faced since their arrival. We meet photographer Pogus Caesar and the Banton family from Peckham, who share how music helped them overcome the ignorance they met and shaped their identities, through multiple generations.
ARRIVAL is the first episode of the series Migrant Sound which aims to celebrate migration and its impact on the UK’s music and culture. Combining broad societal stories with personal family anecdotal histories, the series allows for emotional storytelling mixed with vibrant visuals of migrant culture, told through the lens of youth past and present.[10 minutes] - Series
