Taking its starting point the rapid drying of the Dead Sea, SINKHOLES is a dystopian vision of a world in which water has become scarce. Threading together ideas of entropy and the inhuman, SINKHOLES meditates on our desire both for survival and resignation in the face of extinction.
Black history and modern-day architecture intertwine in a meditative new film about Manchester. Created by the visionary British artist and filmmaker Jenn Nkiru, THE GREAT NORTH pays homage to the people and cultures that make up a city.
Taking Manchester’s industrial history as a starting point, THE GREAT NORTH moves through the city’s Black communities and spaces – from living rooms in Moss Side to social clubs and community centres in Hulme. THE GREAT NORTH is the story of Manchester told through its Black, Asian and Irish communities, spanning outwards to the North of England and the rest of the world.
