“With this wonderful black-and-white journey through the city of London, director Alex Barrett brings a gloriously beautiful and enjoyable modern-day variation on the city symphonies of the 1920s urban cinema (such as 1929’s Man With A Movie Camera). His stunning visuals, combined with James McWilliam’s stirring music, help take the viewer on a poetic journey through London, exploring its rich diversity of culture, architecture and religion. It is a meditative and blissful film that celebrates a vibrant and visually stunning city” – Mark Adams, Edinburgh International Film Festival.

The film was nominated for the Michael Powell Award for Best British Film at the Edinburgh International Film Festival 2017.

The screening will be followed by a Q&A with the film’s director/editor Alex Barrett.
