Walled Cities 8: The Wall + Q&A 
Screening as part of Walled Cities 8, The Wall is director David Kinsella's story of how his childhood in Belfast compared with his documentary work for the North Korean government.
Drawing parallels between his own childhood in Northern Ireland, and the story from North Korea heard from the perspective of a refugee, David Kinsella uses The Wall to discuss how stories and myths both come from truth and from prejudice. Explored through the eyes of young boys in Belfast, this is a film about trust, bigotry and preconceptions when living in the aftermath of conflict.
The screening will be followed by a discussion led by Dr Gul Kacmaz Erk, Lead for Architecture and Planning at Queen’s University. Gul will be joined by special guests David Kinsella (Director) and Dr Ece Sila Bora (Queen’s Architecture Researcher) to offer their insights into the film.
This event is part of CACity presents: Walled Cities 8, a short film season exploring political conflict in divided communities and walled cities around the world. Presented by CACity (Cinema and Architecture in the City) Research Group, in collaboration with Queen’s University. The film screenings will be accompanied by an exhibition of film locations from both Dublin and Belfast, mapped and analysed by Alice Poole and Ece Sila Bora.
