Description

Join us for a screening of the first episode of 70 Up, the final instalment of the landmark Up series. Since 1964, the series has returned every seven years to the same group of British children from very different class backgrounds, asking whether the circumstances we’re born into shape the lives we lead. Directed by Oscar-winner Asif Kapadia, this closing chapter brings one of the most remarkable longitudinal studies ever filmed to its conclusion. All students and staff welcome.

Hosted by: Hosted by the Department of Sociology and the Sociology Society.

Venue: Screening Room G.04, 50 George Square, Edinburgh.

The venue has step-free access. If you have other accessibility needs, please let us know and we will do everything we can to make arrangements.
