WEEK 1 DAY 1 : Freedom and Liberty Project

We began the day by watching a short film called 'The Naked Rambler'. Our tutors wanted to show us the different kind of freedoms and liberties that exist by focusing on nudists and their drive towards their motive. Throughout this film we see the restraints that these nudists go through and how much they suffer to find freedom.  I thought that 'The Naked Rambler' was extremely original and very well filmed. The cameraman knew exactly when to film and so he managed to document extremely precious and personal moments for each of the characters which make us understand them as characters and their motives.

After this film we all got together to speak about each character and their drives towards this type of freedom. We were then asked questions about freedom to help us towards this project. When do you feel free ?

I thought that it was quite difficult to answer this question because for me being free means there has to be restrictions which you manage to get through to feel free. For me freedom is a feeling and cannot be physical unless you are physically locked-up / incarcerated.
