Overview

It's different by the sea. A bit strange even. Just as the coast lies at the ends of England geographically, it's also at the edges of our society and the margins of our culture, a place of transgression, eccentricity, colour and romance. Stranger on the Shore is a cycle of video-poems exploring these liminal spaces; this film looks looking specifically at the bohemian eccentricity of Hastings. The film features an original soundtrack by Andrew Weatherall and Nina Walsh.
