Film-maker Kevin Cameron talks about his project ‘Excess Baggage’.
While Portland’s naval legacy is familiar, this project turns its attention to the families – described by his mother as “excess baggage” – who followed the ships and the postings, shaping a lesser-known pattern of internal migration across Britain.
Through interviews with local naval families, hand-processed Super 8 film, and home movies, Excess Baggage captures the textures and contradictions of life inside this hidden world.
