HERE is a tangential telling of a life story, offering an intimate portrait of a Kentish Town (London UK) local, using architecture and social conditions as indicators of a wider socio-political environment.
Dealing with themes of isolation of the elderly and race and class division, this film explores the experience of growing up in a gritty, working class area in the immediate period after the war, and the incredible moment of moving from an urban slum into social housing, followed by the catastrophic dismantling of the system that followed in the decades after and how it ultimately most affected the worst off.
