An uplifting documentary that captures the resilience of key workers, business owners, and local residents in Portsmouth, as the COVID-19 pandemic and ensuing lockdowns changed everything. The story of an island city coming together in crisis.
In March 2020, we decided to break the gloomy news cycle. Social feeds and TV screens were dominated by stressful headlines and exhausting statistics. Aside from the love shown for key workers, few human stories shone through the facts and figures. So we started planning ‘A Different Perspective of Portsmouth’ — a documentary that would capture the global pandemic through the lens of local voices.
