A poignant portrait of Hull’s hip hop hopefuls.
Following 2015’s Doc/Fest Grand Jury Winner A Syrian Love Story, Sean McAllister returns to his hometown, Hull. Back living with his 90 year old parents and reflecting on changes to the city brought about by public spending cuts and Brexit, Sean is drawn to the fringes of town where he encounters Steve – a struggling warehouse worker with a dream.
The screening is followed by a panel discussion with director Sean McAllister and main protagonist Steve Arnott, chaired by Abigail Scott Paul (Joseph Rowntree Foundation).
A public event presented as part of the Pop Culture and Social Change Retreat 2018, hosted by Counterpoints Arts.
