Manifesta purposely strives to keep its distance from what are often seen as the dominant centres of artistic production, instead seeking fresh and fertile terrain for the mapping of a new cultural topography.
This film by Irish artist Duncan Campbell is about 1970s and 1980s youth culture in Belfast. The film depicts photographs of young working-class people and their neighbourhoods taken in Belfast during the Troubles. Instead of depicting the violence and political unrest, these images make place for everyday existence: the hairstyles, fashions and aspirations of the moment.
