AN IMAGINED COUNTRY

Screening and Artist’s talk

Over the period of a month, during September 2011, artist film-maker Denis Doran and life historian Teresa Cairns travelled across the United States gathering stories of America’s recession-hit people. Doran initiated this trip to follow in the footsteps of his father who also travelled across America during the 1930s, during the Great Depression, memories of which were passed down to his son.
