Abstract
Here To Stay (2006, 72-mins) narrates the story of a Filipino nurse and the expression of his migrant labour activism, in dialogue with civil society representatives, probing and challenging the inadequacies and market-driven characteristics of immigration policy in Ireland. Capturing the evolution of political process over time, alongside the performance of everyday transcultural relations, the film provides insight into how trade unionism develops in a rapidly expanding multiracial society. The film has been screened nationally and internationally at numerous documentary, human rights and gay film festivals, winning the 2007 Multicultural Media Broadcast Award (MAMA) and screened on RTE.
