Everybody In The Place + Jeremy Deller in conversation with Alastair Upton
Sorry, this event has sold out
We join an A-level politics class as they discover the stories of rave and acid house for the first time; viewing the story of acid house from the perspective of a generation for whom it is already ancient history.
We see how rave culture owes as much to the Battle of Orgreave and the underground gay clubs of Chicago as it does to shifts in musical style: not merely a cultural gesture, but the fulcrum for a generational shift in British identity, linking industrial histories and radical action to the wider expanses of a post-industrial future.
The film will be followed by a discussion with Jeremy Deller, chaired by Alastair Upton about his unique approach to documentary storytelling and the documentaries that inspire him.
