A newly commissioned film by Amsterdam-based Maria Pask, inspired by a local newsletter Roundabout produced in the 1950s-60s by one of Oxford’s housing estates, Rose Hill. Pask’s film takes the aspirations and social ideals of a bygone era and gives them a new lease of life. Recreating the past within the context of the present she unites a collective memory and repositions the aspirations of old.
