The Forgotten Space

An AA Members’ Screening of a film by Allan Sekula & Noel Burch, The Forgotten Space, 2007

The Forgotten Space follows container cargo aboard ships, barges, trains and trucks, listening to workers, engineers, planners, politicians, and those marginalized by the global transport system. We visit displaced farmers and villagers in Holland and Belgium, underpaid truck drivers in Los Angeles, seafarers aboard mega-ships shuttling between Asia and Europe, and factory workers in China, whose low wages are the fragile key to the whole puzzle. And in Bilbao, we discover the most sophisticated expression of the belief that the maritime economy, and the sea itself, is somehow obsolete.

Only open to AA Students and Members.

No booking required. The AA Cinema has limited seating so early arrival is recommended.
