'Ordinary Streets' Film Launch, 6th October at LSE

Tuesday 6th October, 6.30-8pm, Wolfson Theatre, New Academic Building, LSE

‘Ordinary Streets’ is a short film based on an ethnographic and visual exploration of the spaces, economies and cultures of ‘street’. Through the lens of Rye Lane in Peckham in south London, the film engages with issues of migration, urban multiculture and regeneration.

Myfanwy Taylor from Just space will provide a commentary on the film.

‘Ordinary Streets’ is a film by Sophie Yetton, based on research led by Suzi Hall at LSE Cities.

The film screening will be followed by a drinks reception, which will take place directly outside the Wolfson Theatre.
