Shelter: a look at Manchester's homeless. Full film. from Mike Staniforth | Film on Vimeo.

Mike Staniforth's documentary on the homeless community in Manchester has won a variety of different laurels from UK and Europe film festivals. Mike Stainforth's film is shot in an Observational mode where characters such as Lukasz describe their daily life style. Their story to say the least is compelling and shocking that observing them alone informs the audience of their situation far greater than any narrator could. It is this style and dramatic impact that I hope to achieve through the shooting process.
