It’s Nice Up North + Q&A U

“Utterly Inspired” – Marc Lee, The Telegraph

“Hilarious.” – Glasgow Herald

“Eccentric, beautifully inconsequential…” – Time Out

A special, 20th-anniversary screening tour of Graham Fellows’ much-loved comedy documentary film It’s Nice Up North, presented as a tribute to the late Martin Parr - the celebrated photographer who shot the film and whose distinctive visual eye is central to its enduring appeal.

Made on a shoestring and edited by Fellows himself, the film follows his alter ego John Shuttleworth on a gently absurd journey through the Shetland Islands to test the theory that the further north you go, the nicer people become.

After the screening, Graham Fellows joins for Q&A to discuss his on and off screen relationship with Martin Parr, and will introduce a new 12 minute short film about Martin with previously unseen footage.
