About
1994, the Camden Monitoring Project, 60 Hampstead Road. A group of volunteers, organising against the growing racist attacks.
When threat is daily, resistance becomes a daily task, but as the teenage Alima is thrown into a night at the Project with her Uncle Muhammed, it becomes clear that within the ordinary, live the extraordinary acts of care needed to hold a community together.
When an attack looms, the phone begins to ring. One call becomes another. As the night deepens, Alima and Muhammad must navigate not only the weight of what they hear, but their own questions about responsibility, identity, and how to respond to injustice. There are choices no-one hopes to have to make.
Based on true stories from the real people of Camden, CAMDENWALLA gives voice to those who refused to stay silent. Intimate, urgent, and quietly powerful, the Camden Monitoring Project is once again activated in the very building it was born, as we continue to ask ourselves what we must do in the face of hatred, division and obstinate hope. Blending humour, humanity, and lived experience, CAMDENWALLA shines a light on a hidden history, and the people who made sure it was never forgotten.
