Overview

They were students, conscientious objectors, peace activists. Robert Reid and his activist mates set up OHMS not On Her Majesty's Service but Organisation to Halt Military Service. They began a series of creative disruptive activities up and down Aotearoa to overthrow Compulsory Military Training.

This 30 minute documentary OHMS! PROTEST! tells their entertaining stories.

It's great that Doc Edge is screening the documentary but we'd love some post production funds.

We've received no funding except what the OHMS crowd raised to pay crews and the editor. We've self funded OHMS! PROTEST!

We're a tiny team, very grateful to Graeme Cowley, Beaconsfield Films who has gifted us some of his fabulous footage from the era.

We'd love your help. Please come to Doc Edge in Auckland on 26 May and Wellington 9 June.

We're under NZ Short Films1

THANK YOU ALL

We are all delighted we have achieved our target & more, thanks to your kindness & generosity. Robert Reid and the OHMS crowd who've seen themselves on the big screen are pleased their dedication to social justice, peace & challenging injustice, then and now, has been recognised at a documentary festival.

And now we decide where the film goes next, once we've sorted the outstanding bills. All ideas welcome. As from 19 June OHMS! PROTEST! A Celebration of Resistance can be seen at Doc Edge on line.

We will keep you posted.
