Oh crumbs! My mum is speaking English!

This blog is about belonging and how this feeling can change with language. My friends and I joined a film project organised by Goldsmith University. Our mission was to create a film in our home language, Turkish, on Fairness and Belonging. We decided to make a film about our parents whose first language is not English. You can enjoy the result!​

OH CRUMBS! MUM IS SPEAKING ENGLISH!

Have you ever thought your parents might sound funny when they speak another language? This blog aims to find answers to this question while I and my friends make a film about it. It will also include pictures and videos of what we do as we make our film
