What Do We Get Out Of It ?
WHAT DO WE GET OUT OF IT ?
London LUX Salon
Wednesday 18 April 2007, at 7pm for 7:30pm start
Three selected episodes from Is That It ?: Images Of Young People, a rare film made by Wilf Thust for Four Corners Film Workshop, based in Bethnal Green. Four Corners was one of several workshops throughout the UK which benefited from funding by the nascent Channel 4, as well as a relaxation of broadcast union laws, to work with people and audiences outside of the normal context for film and video practices in the 1980s.
IS THAT IT ?
Wilf Thust / Four Corners (UK, 1985, 16mm)
Produced from material gathered during a series of Monday workshops with young people in Tower Hamlets, Is That It ? frames the relationship between the film maker and the workshop participants as it develops over a two-year period. Photographs, plays, drawing and writing by the group are cut together with socio-economic statistics on the borough, and reflections on the workshop process. Open ended and at times problematic, the film can be seen as a treated document of an attempt to open up communication “in a group where different classes, races, ages meet.” (W.T.)
The screening will be accompanied by an audience discussion with the filmmaker (and other guests to be announced). The discussion will centre on the implications of the historical model of ‘integrated practice’ for contemporary film and video institutions, and the recent shift toward top-down policy models for social inclusion.
SCENE 4: IMAGES OF THE EAST END (Wilf Thust, 1985, 12 mins)
SCENE 5: IMAGES OF FEAR (Wilf Thust, 1985, 10 mins)
SCENE 6: IMAGES OF CONTROL (Wilf Thust, 1985, 21 mins)
Selected and chaired by Tom Roberts.
