Event overview

Hope Strickland's 2025 FVU-commissioned film a river holds a perfect memory is screening at Full of Noises, Barrow-in-Furness, as part of the event FILMS by Hope Strickland: An Unimaginable Leap + retrospective on 19 September, 7-9:30pm.

About the work

a river holds a perfect memory meanders gently across waterways in Jamaica, through leisure activities such as rafting on the Martha Brae River and a night-time boat trip in Falmouth’s bioluminescent Lagoon. In the UK, archival footage tracks industrial impact upon the landscape in Northern England - as water becomes a resource and a reservoir is constructed in Rochdale.

Commissioned by Film and Video Umbrella and Touchstones Rochdale with support from HOME, Manchester. Supported using public funding by Arts Council England.
