Introduction

Zac Beattie directed the film Rich Kid Poor Kid, which aired on Channel 4 in November 2008, as part of the Cutting Edge series.

The film depicted the stark contrast between the very wealthy and the very poor in London, and the extreme proximity in which they exist. Zac's film was shot in Larkhall in Stockwell, where Spectacle has been running Poverty and Participation in the Media workshops since early 2008. Zac came to Spectacle to be interviewed by Carol Chin and Jheni Arboine, both Larkhall residents and workshop participants.
