From the End of the Road
From the End of the Road is a 24 minute documentary that poetically reflects on the nature of cities. Through the responses and experiences of 4 different individuals, the film uncovers varying strands of Birmingham’s history, the UK’s second city.
Like a sea creature with tentacles continually sucking things into it and spitting things away, Birmingham has long been a metropolis born of other places. From the End of the Road ruminates meditatively on the effects of redevelopment across the urban sprawl.
With contributions from acclaimed children of the city, From the End of the Road seeks a closer look at our environment, unravelling the stories hidden under the surface – those that tell us where we have come from, where we are now, and where we might go.
