A GOOD DAY TO DIE – HOKA HEY is a narrative feature six years in the making, documenting the life story and extraordinary adventures of British conflict photographer, Jason P. Howe. Jason survived 12 years on the frontline of four wars, capturing images of humanity at war, its suffering, and cultures in disarray. This is not a film about war. This is a story about a man who chose a life of perpetual peril in pursuit of the perfect image, and what it takes to get those images published for the world to see. An insight on how passion led to the downward spiral of disillusionment in this crazy tale of survival and change. Jason went down the rabbit hole, and we don’t know if he has fully come back out.
Post-screening will be joined by director Harold Monfils on Skype plus two journalists who feature in the film Jerome Starkey and Thomas Harding.
Directed by Harold Monfils
