| OUR GAME - 8 | |||
| Date: 1992 Film Number: 7736 | |||
| Performance of the play 'Our Game,' written by playwright John Fay in association with Kirkby Response Theatre, Merseyside. Performed in a large theatre in Liverpool, the play reflects on the Heysel Stadium Disaster in 1985 when Liverpool and Juventus football fans clashed in the Belgian stadium - 39 Juventus fans died and a further 600 fans were injured. Performed by a small cast, including John Fay as a fan and the commentator, with simple and effective stage props and projections the play follows a group of Liverpool fans on their journey to the match and the devastating impact of the ensuing events on their lives, their devotion to the game and historical events it makes allusions to. This is the final five minutes (stage centre view) of the 70 minute play. [Catalogued as part of 'Revitalising the Regions' a Screen Heritage UK project, 2011] | |||

| CHILDREN ACT NOW | |||
| Date: 1992 Film Number: 12966 | |||
| Young people and staff from the 10 local authorities in Greater Manchester worked with the Workers’ Film Association to make this campaigning video. It was produced in response to the 1989 Children Act, which was designed to ensure children in care were safeguarded and their welfare promoted. The video lists rights that everyone in care should know, such as the right to access information about yourself, the right to complain, and after-care rights for those no longer looked after by the local authority. Using dramatised scenarios to demonstrate the way issues should and shouldn't be tackled, the young filmmakers make a strong case for their voices to be heard and their concerns taken seriously.
