UK/Germany/1980/104 mins/Partly subtitled/18. Dir: Chris Petit. With Andrew Byatt.

This intensely atmospheric road movie follows a DJ and various misfit characters through the leaden landscape of late 70s Britain. Shot in black and white, the film connects with the disaffection of the time through its imagery and a rich post punk soundtrack that includes Bowie and Kraftwerk.

Wales/2009/24 mins. Wyn Mason/Ian Wiblin.

This expressive short film uses the post-industrial landscape as the backdrop to an enigmatic depiction of a relationship. Music, played live in the cinema, takes the place of dialogue and creates another space within the image.

Screened as part of our collaboration with ATRium celebrating poetry and film.
