Cut Adrift - 2019

Cut Adrift 2019 Directed by Anastasia Wlaschin-Wiest

"Cut Adrift" marks Anastasia Wlaschin-Wiest's directorial debut, delving into the educational challenges on England's Isle of Wight. Raised on the island, Anastasia witnessed the shortcomings of its education system, exacerbated by restructuring in 2011. Despite its proximity to the mainland, the island remains isolated, impacting young perspectives. With below-average results, school closures, and underfunding prevalent, Anastasia's documentary aims to spark discussion and drive positive change. Returning as a recent graduate, she interviews locals to understand the issues and propose solutions. "Cut Adrift" is a poignant call to action, urging for improved educational opportunities and broader horizons for the island's youth.
