Description:
An animated film made by pupils of St Joan of Arc Secondary School to express their likes and dislikes about the city of Glasgow. Using drawings and paintings created by the group, the result is a very effective and attractive piece based around a football game between Celtic and Rangers with a soundtrack featuring the pupils describing their feelings about the city. The introduction and closing sequence skillfully combine the animation with live action video footage of Glasgow.
