'Act of Terror', by Gemma Atkinson/Fat Rat Films


While filming a routine stop and search of her boyfriend on the London
Underground, Gemma suddenly found herself detained, handcuffed and
threatened with arrest.

Act of Terror tells the story of her fight to bring the police to
justice and prevent this happening to anyone else, ever again.

It is easy to forget about the 2005 Terrorism Act and its damaging
effect on civil liberties and human rights.  Act Of Terror puts the
spotlight back on this murky law, and demands that we keep vigilant in
the face of ever increasing state power.

An animated journey through the labyrinthine world of English Justice,
the sinister caveats of Terrorism legislation, and the shocking cronyism
of the police complaints system, Act Of Terror is about strength in the
face of powerlessness and finding the courage to fight back.

-- 

"We are not for names, nor men, nor titles of Government,
nor are we for this party nor against the other but we are
for justice and mercy and truth and peace and true freedom,
that these may be exalted in our nation, and that goodness,
righteousness, meekness, temperance, peace and unity with
God, and with one another, that these things may abound."
(Edward Burrough, 1659 - from 'Quaker Faith and Practice')
