Babylon, dir. Franco Rosso, UK 1980, 94 min., English
While hoping to win a Sound System competition, Ital Lion looks to fight against the struggles he faces as a Black man in 1980s Britain. Shot on location in areas such as Deptford and Elephant & Castle, Franco Rosso's cult classic pulsates with an irresistible dub soundtrack, capturing South London's Sound System culture expertly.
This screening forms part of the programme accompanying War Inna Babylon: The Community’s Struggle for Truths and Rights.
