london25mar09The problem with taking photos is that you can’t take ‘em when you speak – that’s what happened at the London event to launch the Disarm DVD on 25 March 2009. It was fun evening though and thanks for Thomas for his photo!  About 60 guests attended the event at Portcullis House in the British parliament, which featured a panel comprised of Dogwoof’s Andy Whittaker member of parliament Frank Cook, former BBC journalist and parliamentarian Martin Bell, and Disarm director Mary Wareham. Co-director Brian Liu was unable to attend the London launch.

Many thanks to IndiePix, Dogwoof (Andy Whittaker, Caroline Addy, Louise Sambells), the All Party Landmine Eradication Group including its chair Frank Cook MP and Landmine Action UK (especially Portia Stratton).

A fuller report is available on the disarmfilm.org website and Disarm is now available for purchase in the United Kingdom from amazon.co.uk and other retailers.
