Synopsis

'Here for Life' will tell the incredible shared story of ten Londoners. Their lives have always been marked by loss and love, trauma and courage, struggle and resistance. They fight against a system that conspires against them. They dance, steal and eat all together; They agree and discuss, celebrate their all their differences and peculiarities and share their different talents. The lines between the history of one person and that of another person are very diffuse, as well as the barrier between reality and fiction, which in many cases becomes impossible to distinguish. Together, they will end up meeting in an impromptu stage between the train tracks. There they will debate about life, about what has been stolen who and why, what is right and what is wrong, how the world works, its mistakes and how to solve them ... In short, this strange group will ask a multitude of questions of the most existential and that will reflect some of the greatest vicissitudes and injustices that the society in which we live today keeps. 'Here for Life' is the culmination of the long-lived shared career that filmmakers Andrea Luka Zimmerman and Adrian Jackson have. A small film that promises to become the biggest of all its filmography, or at least one of their bests.

What the critics say 4.0, from one outlet

  • 4.0 The GuardianLeslie Felperin It is part documentary, part collectively created drama that keeps all its boundaries ? between the fake and the real, biography/confession and fiction, and so on ? porous and smudgy. Read
