Ive listened to all the stories of my generation; then watched em get sick or fade away. And it wasnt this world that killed em. It was the otherhellip; the memory of it." Britain; the near future. Much of the country is underwater and the government has been reduced to a group of fascist strongmen. In a rural outpost of the state; the men patrol the moors for illegals whilst the women run a self-sufficient farm to provide what all they need to survive. The living conditions are harsh; every meagre ration is grown from scratch and they must battle with inclement weather and a draconian government. As their numbers dwindle; they struggle to retain a semblance of civilisation in the face of the inevitable onset of global war. Stark and imperative; but shot through with a sense of warm compassion; Beth Steels debut play Ditch is a clear-eyed look at how we might behave when the conveniences of our civilisation are taken away; and a frightening vision of a future that could all too easily be ours.Ditch is a brutal and uncompromising play; with a grounded; earthy sense of humanity. The result is both heart-rending and chilling; depicting a convincing; bleak vision of the future.

The dvd was what I thought would do the trick. Unfortunately I learned nothing. The video shots were poor examples(color and framing). This is for people with ZERO experience with video. And to be fair. they made it apparent that they were not videographers. In my opinion having a few photos cut in to a wedding video is much easier on the eye than 2 second shots cut inbetween a slide show.0 of 0 people found the following review helpful.
