No Mean City

  • English
  • 15 min
On a clear night in Belfast, two workmen and their apprentice work methodically to change the city’s streetlights from orange sodium to white LED. Northern Ireland lags behind the rest of the UK on this transformation, the partially converted streets reflecting the city’s complicated relationship to change. As the night progresses, from the cab of the workmen’s van, a city searching for clarity begins to come into focus.
