Abstract

Online trailer for the 17-minute experimental dance film, 'Heaven is a Place', made with members of the LGBT community, whose personal narratives of longing and loss are told through a series of poetic encounters in the liminal, waterfront spaces of the city's border with the sea: the decommissioned military installations of Devil's Point, the crumbling recreational structures of Plymouth Hoe, including the iconic Lion's Den - which was once the (in)famous nude men's bathing area - and the brutal beauty of the 1950s-built Bretonside bus station - demolished since the film was shot to make way for yet another 'leisure' development.
