Project Description

A short film by collaborators David Reeve and Patrick Steel, ‘Doreen’ was shown at the Open City Docs Festival in London in 2012. It is a portrait of Doreen Gibbs, a resident on Heygate Estate, in 2012 shortly after notice was given by Southwark Council of the compulsory purchase order on her home.

The film was made from footage gathered over the process of shooting the directors’ 30 minute feature, ‘Larry and Janet Move Out’.
