Back in 2002, Jenny Chapman, who lives at Achnaha, made a short film with some of the children at Kilchoan Primary school. The film was called 'Message', and it was screened at the historic Egyptian Theatre in Hollywood as part of the very first Artivist Film Festival in 2004. As Jenny says on her Artwork blog, which features the film today as an Easter message of peace, "The film was composited and animated from live footage and artwork which was created specially by the children of a remote Scottish community (under the direction of Jenny Chapman) in order to send a message of peace to the world at a deeply troubled time. The drawn and painted images which appear in the film are the children’s own, and bear witness to the impact of world events on their imaginations."
