1987
The Last of England
A visual poem/meditation on the state of England under Thatcher's regime and modernity as a whole. Visually striking images denotative of urban decay and a society held hostage by fear present themselves within a fractured, seemingly directionless film that ignores narrative constraints in favour of stylised images of the cityscape in ruin. The film states an identity between life and the cinema in the most poetic sense.
