Описание: My short film is about the Winstanley estate, a social housing estate in south London, built in the 1960s in Battersea, near to Clapham Junction station, Britain's greatest railway intersection. Its title pays homage to Los Angeles Plays Itself, Thom Andersen's video essay about LA which uses clips of films in which LA was the filming location "to documentary effect". My own film aims to do something different but complementary, combining a voiceover of a script made from edited text of the Survey of London - bartlett.ucl.ac.uk/architecture/research/survey-of-london - the official history of London's streets and buildings on which I work as a historian, with archive photographs, maps and fiction (feature) film and newsreel clips of the estate, to create something both factually informative and atmospherically suggestive about the estate and its prehistory. It is about the place not about the films but I believe seeing the films enhances our understanding of the place, and knowing about the place enhances our understanding of the films.
