‘Son of Shrewsbury’ was made by a small team of young people, from across Shropshire, aged 16 to 19, who were part of BFI Film Academy at MediaActive in Shropshire.

Two grammatically opposed investigative journalists take a look at the legacy, and ubiquity around the town, of one of Shrewsbury’s most famous sons - naturalist Charles Darwin.

We are pleased to share this short film as part of the 2024 Darwin Festival offer.
