Our Project

Our first film is about the Battle of Britain, which started on the 10^th July 1940. It is one of most talked about moments of World War II but never before has social media been used to find forgotten stories and give them new life.

What Do We Want From You?

If you are 72 years old, or older, and remember some events from 1940, we would love to hear from you! We would like to film a short interview with you, talking about your experiences.

If you have a family member or friend, who might have a story from 1940, please ask them to consider sharing it with us.

If you have a story from 1940, please let us know. We're looking for diaries, letters, photos, recordings, or personal accounts written down or told to you. We're looking to hear voices from Britain, from Germany, and from across the world.

We want to turn these stories into a documentary. But it isn't just our documentary, it's yours too.

If you have a question about the Battle of Britain that you'd like answered by someone who was there, or by an historian, please send it in. If you have a suggestion for a story, or an idea you would like to share, get in touch!
