A documentary slice of Christie Williamson's life in Glasgow, narrated in English. Alongside samples of Christie's poetry and conversation, this film contributes to a small collection which forms one part of an extension series of the Island Voices project, in which its "capture and curation" model is used for more languages in addition to English and Gaelic.
