Learning on ScreenPride of Place
- Synopsis
- PRIDE OF PLACE was made as as a first project while Longinotto was a student at the National Film and Television School. As a teenager, she had been sent to a girls’ boarding school in an old, isolated castle in Buckinghamshire. In this dark film Longinotto exposes the repressive school from the students’ perspectiveas a kind of miniature state with bizarre rules, indigestible food and absurd punishments. One year after the release of the film, the boarding school was closed down.
