OCCUPIED CITY + LIVE INTRO

Introduced LIVE by film and television writer and broadcaster, Ellen E. Jones. Where do the memories of a city go? The past collides with the precarious present in filmmaker Steve McQueen’s epic documentary that paints a stunningly powerful portrait of Nazi occupied Amsterdam in World War II through a mesmerising modern day look at the Dutch capital. Rejecting archival footage and first-person narratives for a haunting door-to-door excavation of the chilling wartime past alongside a vivid journey through modern-day protests and a pandemic, OCCUPIED CITY becomes an expansive meditation on memory, time, and perhaps, what's next. OCCUPIED CITY is based on “Atlas of an Occupied City: Amsterdam 1940-1945” by Dutch filmmaker and journalist Bianca Stigter, The film includes a 15-minute intermission.DocumentaryPT4H40M12A2024-06-09
