Syncopated Green

Overview

Syncopated Green reflects on the history of outdoor free parties in the English Countryside, using rave music, past and present, to help forget the ‘official’ portrayal of England as picturesque, nostalgic, white, and rural. The film invites rave music into the English landscape – turning imperial history inside out. Somewhere between a music video, a memoir and an essay, the film asks, how might our future be different if we had other histories to lean on – and dance with?
