Latest news: Sarah Barton wins Churchill Fellowship

Fertile Films’ proprietor Sarah Barton has been awarded a prestigious Churchill Fellowship, which will allow her to travel to the United Kingdom, Geneva and the United States to research and record interviews for a documentary about the history of the disability rights movement. Sarah departs for Lancaster in the UK on Sunday September 5th. She will spend 3 weeks in the UK also visiting Leeds and London. After that she will take a short holiday in France with her family, squeezing in a trip to Geneva to the World Health Organisation. In October she travels to New York City then Philadelphia, Austin, San Francisco, Berkeley, and Los Angeles, returning home on Melbourne Cup weekend.

It’s a huge effort organising a journey of this kind, arranging meetings at a distance as well as accommodation, flights and car hire. It’s exciting but also daunting. Sarah will be travelling with her HD video camera, sound gear and a small lighting kit. She’ll also be blogging throughout her journey so please follow the journey at http://sarahschurchilladventure.blogspot.com/
