1000 voices trailer

Short trailer for new animation '1000 voices'.

"Messages begin to appear on an abandoned answer phone in the basement of
a government ministry.

Over the crackle of the line those
detained indefinitely in removal centres
around the UK begin to break the silence.

As they speak the trauma of their experiences
materializes in visceral and nightmarish images."

Directed by award-winning filmmaker
Tim Travers Hawkins and realized by
four of the UKs most exciting animators,
this dark and powerful short film
reveals the psychological trauma and
isolation felt by asylum seekers who are
being detained indefinitely in the UK.

1000 VOICES comprises real testimony
recorded in secret over the phone with
detainees.

Couldn't agree more about the director. I also happened to see a QnA with him in which he insulted the public for turning up to support his work. I hear he is also a closet Nazi who drinks the blood of young children. I read on the internet that he keeps a sweatshop of animators locked up in a dungeon under his Beverly hills mansion, who he forces to slave away day and night on his films, under pain of death, while he swans around Hollywood or goes shooting baby deer with his NRA buddies.

he also mentioned that he didnt make the animation himseld and only directed it. If you watch it you'll see that there isnt much to direct. It's documented voices and amazing animation, which other people did for him. I hope he is not taking all the creadit, considering he might be someone who makes a name for himself out of other people's misery.

No doubt this is an interesting animation, but a little note on director. I happened to see him in a QnA after his film in an event organised by Amnesty International. Unfortunately he is as ignorant and careless as the people he is accusing in the film. One of the first thing he said, was accusing all of us in the room of ignorance. once asked what came of people in the animation, he said he thinks one committed suicide and the rest he didnt folow up with.

I think this is a great animation. I'd love to get in touch about possibly screening it at reframe film festival. Can't seem to find an e-mail for you tim.
