GOODBYE EUROPE
A CHOCOLATE FILMS PROJECT FOR BREXIT
‘Goodbye Europe’ is an anthology of short films about the London lives of people from each of the 28 nations in the EU, shot in the final months of the UK’s time in the EU, before Brexit. The films will take you inside a cage fight, an evangelical church and a rehearsal room at the Royal Ballet. You’ll also discover the perspectives of a Bulgarian abseiler, a Swedish economist, a Spanish Big Issue vendor, a Finnish hairdresser and many many more. And as with all films on the 1000 Londoners project, the films are about the people not the issue.
‘GOODBYE EUROPE’ OUR BIGGEST CINEMA RELEASE TO DATE
‘1000 Londoners: Goodbye Europe’ played to packed houses across the capital at special events pre-Brexit. There were sell-out events at the Curzon Soho, The Hackney Picturehouse and The Ritzy and it was featured in our Tate retrospective in March 2020. The cinema screenings included some curated archive films of Londoners in Europe throughout the last century and told the history of the European Union.
