LIFF23: From Where We Stand

Lucy Kaye, UK, 2023

Friday 10 November 2023

This event has passed.

The world premiere of filmmaker Lucy Kaye’s intimate portraits of diverse individuals in three Northern English towns.

Filmed across Wakefield, Halifax and Middlesbrough, the film brings together stories of loss, migration, friendship, and mutual aid, to convey a strong sense of place and lived experience. Exploring our relationship to the places we live and our sense of belonging, the film challenges stereotypes and gives a vital voice to those not often heard.

From Where We Stand is a thoughtfully observed film that feels truly collaborative, and an authentic portrait of Northern England post-Brexit.

The film will be followed by a Q&A with Lucy Kaye and some of the film’s participants.

Part of Leeds International Film Festival.
