An empty city.
A population in hiding.
An invisible enemy who surrounds you.
A testimony of fear, survival, and hope.
Glasgow city centre filmed from the ground and the air during the first lockdown of Spring 2020. Empty streets, empty roads, schools, shops and pubs closed with a population hiding indoors. A city under siege by an unseen enemy. Alongside this footage is the testimony of a survivor who describes this new life under siege, survival tactics and their hope for the future.
