Northern Exposure presents: From Where We Stand
A Film by Lucy Kaye.
Lucy Kaye’s one-hour documentary and deep dive into the life and times of residents of three post-industrial towns in the North of England is at once moving, visually haunting, and (in parts) disturbingly raw. It is part of Northern Exposure, a 4-year project run at the University of Leeds. It took a sociological look at political disaffection — and issues of austerity, deprivation, race and nation — in the North of England after Brexit and during COVID. The film premiered at the Leeds International Film Festival in November 2023.
