In 1929 Nell Logan took part in a youth peace conference in Moscow. More than 50 years later she was among the women fighting against cruise missiles at Greenham Common.
‘Greenham Granny’ is a film portrait of Nell Logan, which shows her Greenham activities in the context of a life-long struggle by interweaving scenes from her life in the mid 1980s with archive material reflecting her past and half a century of history. In the course of detailing the life of someone active in the peace movement since the 1930s, ‘Greenham Granny’ provides invaluable information on many aspects of the nuclear debate.
