FIRES AND FASCISM is a new 57-min documentary that shows the wildfires in Europe are more than just climate change and mismanagement. It links the growing wildfires of Europe with past fascism, big business, organised crime, and the far right. It showcases how communities are engaging in direct action, protest, rewilding, and suppressing the uncontrollable fires and the far right.

What drove Charles Nasmyth to paint a portrait of a man he never met, and had barely heard of?
The Fife-based artist became inspired by the life and work of Hamish Henderson, after meeting Katzel, his widow. He spent a year learning from Hamish’s former friends and colleagues about his achievements.
Well known for his folk song collecting and support for Scottish self-determination, Charles discovered that there was much more to admire in Hamish’s life story. In particular, his own poetry and song-writing, his remarkable war-service in the British Army and his inspirational teaching at Edinburgh University.
Henderson’s folk-song collecting, Charles discovered, was motivated not just by his Perthshire roots, but the influence of Italian philosopher, Antonio Gramsci, whose respect for the ‘culture of the people’ he deeply admired.
And he was determined that the ‘carrying stream’ of Scottish culture, expressed in the songs, ballads and stories he collected, should not be swamped by outside influences. Especially that the Scots language should thrive as a living expression of Scotland’s identity and culture.
In this film, Charles revisits the people who taught him Hamish’s life-story. And explains why he was inspired to paint his portrait.
We are delighted to welcome director Michael Lloyd, and presenter and artist Charles Nasmyth for a post film discussion, as well as Professor Fred Freeman, now at the Royal Conservatoire of Scotland, who studied under Hamish at the School of Scottish Studies and was a close friend.
