Three Films by Marc Isaacs

Alternative title
Marc Isaacs Collection: Lift / Travellers / Calais, The Last Border:
Synopsis
A collection of shorts by acclaimed documentary filmmaker Marc Isaacs. LIFT is a meditation on the mundanities of London life. Installing himself inside the lift of a high-rise block of council flats, Isaacs and his camera patiently observe the residents as they go about their daily business. As each of his subjects enters the lift, it is interesting to note their reactions to him being there; some are suspicious, others curious, and then there are those who seem more comfortable in his presence. Also included are the films TRAVELLERS and CALAIS - THE LAST BORDER, each revealing a poignant and original perspective on modern British life. DVD extras include an interview with Isaacs and a booklet with an essay by Graeme Hobbs.
