A Moving Image(2016) 75min., drama film
directed by Shola Amoo
Nina, a young stifled artist, returns to her community after a long absence and is soon painted as a symbol of gentrification. As she struggles with her own complicity, she begins to create a piece of art that can bring her community together.


Estate, a Reverie (2015) 83 min., documentary
directed by Andrea Zimmerman
Filmed over seven years, Estate, a Reverie reveals and celebrates the resilience of residents who are profoundly overlooked by media representations and wider social responses. Interweaving intimate portraits with the residents' own historical re-enactments, landscape and architectural studies and dramatised scenes, Estate, a Reverie asks how we might resist being framed exclusively through class, gender, ability or disability, and even through geography…


This event is part of Deptford X Fringe Programme and it is a collaboration between Deptford Cinema, sixtyseven collective and Leith Late this year. 

We have amazing partners such as HAGL, Deptford Debate and food will be provided by Deptford People Project. The event is FREE.

Estate is a deeply moving portrait of a community struggling to survive in a boarded-up London public housing project, long slated for demolition. Multilayered and profound, Andrea Zimmerman’s film immerses us in a dreamlike lost-world of misfits, outcasts and survivors whom she films with love and aching tenderness. A lyrical and gripping vision of the loneliness and disempowerment that haunts life even in the world’s wealthiest cities.
— Joshua Oppenheimer, Director of The Act Of Killing
