    Documerica, Self-Portrait of a Nation on the Brink

    Director: Pierre-François Didek

    Duration: 58 min

    Language: English

    Subtitles: German

    Landscapes disfigured by industry, nature disfigured by mountains of rubbish and scrap cars: ‘Documerica’ paints an unsparing picture of the USA. ‘Documerica’ is the name of a photography programme run by the US Environmental Protection Agency in the 1970s. The aim was to photographically document the dramatic ecological state of the country. From 1972, around one hundred photographers travelled the United States. Their photographs show the society of the time and its living conditions as a disturbing mosaic. Tens of thousands of pictures were taken at the time, but they were forgotten. Now we revisit the project with some of the photographers involved.

    Director: Hannah Papacek-Harper

    Duration: 90min

    Language: English, Scottish Gaelic

    Subtitles: English

    How do you connect with nature? What does nature mean to you? Lost for Words takes its audience on a journey around the UK, portraying landscapes and the communities that live within them. Our starting point is the disappearance of nature words from the Oxford Junior dictionary in 2007. Inspired by Robert MacFarlane and Jackie Morris’s best-selling book The Lost Words, it is lost words like acorn, otter, bluebell, dandelion that guide us through the film. We follow them through the seasons, to the most remote parts of the UK landscape, museum archives and into scientists’ labs.
