An essay film analysing the space of the city as a product, its inhabitation – its spatial negotiation, its encoding by racial privilege, and who controls it.

Inspired by a visit to Zabriskie Point – this film re-visits and contemporises Antonioni’s 1970 film of the same name. Aligning with Antonioni's stated intentions – to produce a work as "an idea in landscape" – the film undertakes a programme of visual and social research for the earlier film.

Driven by a recurring urge to encounter strangers with her camera, the filmmaker begins to film her solitary Greek Cypriot neighbour Pete in the tower block in London where they both live. Around the same time, her father in Denmark receives a cancer diagnosis requiring her to spend more time with him. As her father gradually slips back into the depression that made him absent when she was a teenager, she feels a need to document this transition. Her compulsion to enter into Pete’s life and to film him echoes with her desire for understanding her father’s experience of isolation and loneliness, as well as her own relationship to it. ALL THESE SUMMERS asks questions about responsibility in life and in film whilst intimately confronting the complexities of the daughter-father and filmmaker-subject relationship.
