Blue Has No Borders + discussion 
Presented in partnership with United Against Racism Belfast. Documentary filmmaker Jessi Gutch grapples with the turmoil of Britain’s increasingly violent identity crisis by getting to know her new neighbours in the iconic British port town of Folkestone.
The town, built for defence, ripples with ghosts of soldiers and now, fleeing asylum seekers, evoking shame and fear in residents. Psychological borders deepen, hindering a multicultural future. But Jessi's film is turned on its head as she meets 6 characters embodying hope for a community of messy inclusivity and English identity, traversing racial, political, and class borders, urging liberal audiences and societies to introspect.
Through moments of emotion, humour, and the everyday, the film delves into their lives, echoed by locals’ thoughts and dreams as the Coronation comes, wars begin, and Governments change, tracing British identity amidst social and political chaos.
