About:
The latest installment of the longest-running documentary project in history.
The film screened as part of DOC NYC, for which our program notes read:
This longitudinal project started out by filming a group of seven-year-old British children representing a range of the country’s class system. Every seven years, director Michael Apted has returned to the same participants for a poignant inquiry into the arc of their lives, through births, deaths, marriages, and divorces – chronicling all their highs and lows. Apted, now in his late 70s, has suggested this ninth installment may be the last.
