Living With Buildings is a film screening that explore themes of people, poetry and place to understand how we live within the built environment of cities and urban spaces.

We’re open to work across the short/poetry-film/experimental/documentary strands of film-making.

Past work has focussed on how we move through streets, the decline of social housing and the rise gentrification, roads to nowhere, and the space in between.

LIVING WITH BUILDINGS is brought to you by the Disappear Here poetry film project.

Rooted in the UK city of Coventry, famed for its iconic ringroad and modernist architecture and reinvention as a city rising from the ashes and ruins of arial bombing in World War Two – we are happy to consider work from citizens all around the world.

    Thank you for including LDN 51.5072N 0.1276W in the film festival; I wish I could have attended.
    Adam was incredibly attentive and timely in responding to all of my emails, which gave me a sense of security, and I'm sure the festival is conducted with the same care. I recommend everyone to enter.
    The only thing I wish they would do is update their website so that I can find out which films are screening there and connect with the filmmakers even if I can't go. Thank you once again. :)

    Very good communication from the festival. If your film is congruent with the festival's theme, this is a great way to find an audience that will appreciate your film. I wish I had been able to attend, but I was not in the country at that time.

    Good festival on an interesting and overlooked theme: how humans interact with their urban environments has a big impact on the ecological environment and social organization. Thanks to the festival organizers!
