The MJR documentary film ‘After the Flood’ was one of 6 nominees in the TV/Video category at this year’s Sandford Awards, which took place in Manchester on June 21. The deserving winner was ‘Children of the Ukraine‘, runner-up ‘David Baddiel: Jews Don’t Count’. The other nominees were all BBC, ITV C4 and RTE commissions, so we felt proud to be there at all! It says much about the amazing job director Sheila Marshall and her team did with the comparatively small budget we were able to give them. Lots of nice things were said to us about ‘After the Flood’ on the evening, and our hope is that it will open new opportunities for the film to be screened more widely and to access more resources for MJR to promote the film.
