About this Event

‘Our Views from Kensal’ is a 20 minute documentary by SPID about the Grade II* listed estate of Kensal House, where the youth and community charity is based. It allows residents to share their experiences and stories of living in Kensal House. It also shares the stories of those who share the building's facilities. The film is produced as part of Estate Endz, the program created by Nnenna Samson and Mariana Sastre in 2013. It builds on SPID’s first Living History project that takes its inspiration from the 1984 full length film ’12 Views From Kensal,’ which juxtaposed filmed footage of the estate with interview with residents, local shop keepers, those managing the community spaces, and heritage specialists. Both films will be screened at the BFI where the wider community can acknowledge and begin to understand what it might mean to live, learn or work in this building.

*There will also be live performance poetry performances from the Estate Endz participants and a Q & A with participants and residents
