Brexitannia

The one certainty in the topsy turvy chaos of British politics is that all roads lead to Brexit. The referendum vote in June 2016 divided the country and sent out shock waves that are still being felt. Brexitannia is a timely attempt to understand the deeper feelings and wider issues behind the British decision to leave the European Union. Fascinating as a state of the nation snapshot, Brexitannia gives insight about the hopes and fears of a very disunited United Kingdom. Perhaps it is the sense of impotence that makes a specific vision of the past seem so enticing or the desire to scapegoat foreigners so irresistible. (Allan Hunter, Screen Daily)
