Phase 3 Ali in Wonderland is a stand alone feature film aimed at a festival and cinema market. Production took place over June/July 2009 and saw a number of young people, many from local universities, working alongside new migrants, engaged in volunteer work as well as work-based training with film industry professionals. These collective opportunities for young people are supported by V-Inspired, please follow the relevant link for more information. Some previous group members who also starred in the actual film. The film is championed by cinema legend, Sir Ben Kingsley, who took a shine to the project just before filming. See what has to say here. The films is due to release in early 2010. The film will be complemented with a online interactive education programme which will see the film go into schools across the UK and Europe (hence reaching a wide public) as part of citizenship lessons.  The education project and innovative distribution strategy is as ambitious as the feature film so check our site as the project develops!
