The Brexit tree – online event – world premiere
4th February 2021 @ 7:00 pm - 9:30 pm
We are delighted to announce a late addition to Continue Watching, our online season of film screenings, discussion events and critical writing.
At 7pm GMT on Thursday 4 February, in partnership with Deveron Projects, we stream the world premiere of The Brexit Tree, a new feature documentary by artists Jan Martinec and Clemens Wilhelm examining the intentions and controversies of a community arts project in Huntly, Aberdeenshire marking the UK’s withdrawal from the European Union.
Exploring the relationship between curation and community against the backdrop of a divided nation and in the context of small-town rural Scotland, The Brexit Tree will be followed on 4 February by a live Q&A, for which Jan and Clemens will be joined by writer and comedian A.L. Kennedy and Deveron Projects Founder Claudia Zeiske. The film has been captioned by Matchbox Cineclub.
