Nelson MacDonald’s short There Lived the Colliers to premiere at Edinburgh Film Fest 2017 Posted: 31 May 2017 01:25 PM PDT A new short film, There Lived the Colliers by Nelson MacDonald (NSI Drama Prize), premieres at the Edinburgh International Film Festival this June. In Nova Scotia between 1850 and 1920 thousands of wooden duplexes were built by coal companies to house the influx of workers from Europe and the Caribbean. Now, decades since the last mine closed, the houses remain. Nelson’s short experimental documentary shot on 16mm relies on images of the simple homes to suggest the personality, resilience, hardship and history of the working-class people who have inhabited this place for the last 150 years. Inaugurated in 1947, the festival is the world’s longest continually-running film festival. The fest runs from June 21 to July 2.
