HERE FOR LIFE

DOCUMENTARY | ENGLISH | 87 MIN

An uncommon story told on common ground: Londoners now with their love and their loss, their lyrical lives and marginalised grace; between fiction and fact, attention and act, what does it cost to exist? We are all Here for Life, here for now.

DIRECTORS Andrea Luka Zimmerman and Adrian Jackson

Adrian Jackson’s thought-provoking art piece.”
