LONDON
.- From the streets of Brixton and Manchester to leafy suburbs, junk yards, punk venues and community centres, Great Noises That Fill the Air celebrates and showcases an eclectic trove of music, poetry and spoken word performance in a curated collection of film and video works made between 1978 and 1996, and rarely seen since.
In the later decades of the 20th century, independent filmmakers pushed at the creative boundaries of documentary work thanks to Arts Council funding, generating an eruption of diverse, dynamic, cutting edge films that still stimulate the intellect and inflame the senses. By turns poetic and impressionistic, personal and experimental, these bold films highlight the potential of documentary to challenge, celebrate, excite, fight and inspire.
