FILM 'Our Land' (Dir. Orban Wallace) & TALK by Prof. Colin Samson with Q&A
Advertisement
Part of the 2026 UK release. A film about the Right to Roam, which asks: who has the right to access the countryside, and who controls it?
About this Event

We are delighted that this year's Jane's Walk Colchester festival is able to be part of the 2026 UK release of Our Land. Presenting arguments from both sides, the film ‘charts the conflict, exploring the complex issues of access, custodianship and conservation’.

In advance of the film, it is our pleasure to welcome Professor Colin Samson, who will discuss how relationships to the land and nature have been curtailed by the establishment of exclusive private property. Drawing on the ‘Right to Roam’ movement co-founder Nick Hayes’ Book of Trespass, Colin will trace the ‘cult of exclusion’ to histories of enclosure and colonialism, ending with various proposals to reverse this loss of our common inheritances.
Time/Venue: 5-8pm, The Curzon Cinema (Screen 3), Queen St.
Tickets in advance, £10 (suggested) or Pay-as-you-feel.
