Synopsis

This film chronicles a year in the life of London, a city in decline, seen through the eyes of an unseen and unnamed narrator. 1992 saw the re-election of John Major as prime minister, renewed IRA bombings, the “Black Wednesday” European monetary crisis, and the “fall of the house of Windsor.”

MUBI's take

Famed for its poetic imagery and geopolitical analysis, Patrick Keiller’s idiosyncratic portrait of 1990s London sees the act of walking as a form of time travel. Laying dormant under an atmosphere of urban unrest is the city’s robust cultural past, beautifully revealed through literary references.
