Low Rent
Low Rent spans the year Cloudberry MacLean spent secretly living in a hut they built on their allotment in Edinburgh back in 2005.
About Low Rent
Low Rent | Dir. Cloudberry MacLean | 1hr 15mins | Scotland | 2024
It follows the full cycle of the seasons and captures moments such as early dawn from the hut doorway, a fox running with a scavenged egg in her mouth and trees bending with fruit. In its course I explore questions that continue to preoccupy me about land ownership in Scotland, class, poverty, colonialism and how the violence of capitalism and the joy of life meet in our bodies. With a unique score created by Jer Reid drawing from live improvisation by Jer Reid (guitar) and Una MacGlone (double bass).
Content note: references to colonialism and chattel slavery.
