Join Barbican for their Emerging Film Curators Lab 2022. The first in their screenings is Rolling in the Deep: Mer-Creatures and Mythology in Global Cinema. Across the world, mermaids appear in films imagining life beyond capitalist and colonial systems. Descend into underwater worlds in this programme of short films exploring the mer-myth. The screening includes experimental, documentary and fiction short films from the UK, Philippines, Ghana and Italy, which reinterpret mer-myths to explore the significance of water as a poetic and political space.
