These four short films, for the Three Minute Wonder series, explore how individual lives and the community of Handsworth have changed over the last 40 years. They offer a fresh and interesting look at the integration of new communities in Britain today.
In 1960 a 10-year-old boy from Saint Thomas, Jamaica received a package from his family, far away in Handsworth, Birmingham where they had migrated to start a family business. Inside he found a Kodak Brownie 127 camera that was to transform his world. His name was Vanley Burke.
Handsworth Conversations also deal with the issue of gun crime and how violence has affected the community. More on gun crime >
