The Gathering Channel 4




The Gathering is a 2022 two-part television documentary directed by Richard Curtis and produced by Rowan Deacon, both previously of Comic Relief and Red Nose Day.

The documentary tells the story of how 22 people from around the world came together to live in a remote part of Scotland for a year. The participants were from a variety of backgrounds, ages, and cultures but all shared the desire to make a positive difference in the world.

Over the course of the year, the participants lived together in a community, working together to build a sustainable lifestyle and learn from each other. They also worked on a number of projects, including building a school for local children and setting up a community garden.

The Gathering is a powerful and moving documentary that celebrates the power of human connection. It is a reminder that we are all capable of great things when we work together

Personal Reflection

I watched The Gathering with my family, and we were all deeply moved by the stories of the participants. It was inspiring to see how these people from such different backgrounds were able to come together and create a community based on love and respect.

I also found it very moving to see how the participants were able to overcome challenges and work together to make a positive difference in the world. It is a reminder that anything is possible when we work together.

Call to Action

I encourage everyone to watch The Gathering. It is a powerful and inspiring documentary that will stay with you long after you watch it.

I also encourage you to get involved in your community. There are many ways to make a difference, big and small. Even the smallest act of kindness can make a positive impact on the world.
