Description de l'ouvrage :
Sam Hanna (1903-96), a pioneering filmmaker from Burnley, Lancashire, was dubbed the ‘Lowry of filmmaking’ by BBC broadcaster Brian Redhead in the 1980s. The well-meant label stuck, even though it misses the variety of Hanna’s remarkable output.

Hanna’s intimate glimpses into the lives of strangers enable us to imagine the possible stories that lie behind the images. Away from mid-century exponents of documentary filmmaking and photography, Hanna shows us humanity and a microcosm of a world in change, where his subjects are caught up in issues far beyond their grasp that we, as onlookers years later, encounter and see afresh.

Written and curated by historian Heather Norris Nicholson, Round our way combines stills, essays and archive photography to document Hanna’s unique visual record on film, particularly in northern England, but also further afield, during decades of profound change.
