Set entirely in the East of England and built through poetry, performance and slips of story. Woven together these forms accumulate ideas around what home means. The film is about trade: what it means to produce and export, or import from elsewhere. It is also a film about migration, identity and defence. These themes underpin the film and offer up multiple layers of resonance and meaning. The film is carried by two other voices. The first, our narrator, initially sets the scene before falling into his own poetic visions and daydream. The second is a family of scrolling red LED text boxes, stood in the sea and beginning: HERE IS A MAP... On Landguard Point features work by internationally acclaimed artists such as Julia Bardsley, Rajni Shah, Kira O'Reilly, Harminder Judge and Mark Peter Wright.See less
