A Bit Of A Divide
Here.Us.Now. is the fruit of a year-long investigation to hear the voices of people living on three London housing estates. The film series looks at the role social housing now plays in modern-day London. Actors with experience of homelessness listen to the real voices of social housing residents, and speak their words out loud – on occasion watched over by the residents themselves. Filmed with a beautiful, humane eye by director Dorothy Allen-Pickard, the films are often funny, sometimes uncanny, and reveal the joys, the challenges, and the importance of social housing to a thriving capital city.
