Description

Shooting The Past by Stephen Poliakoff is a thought-provoking drama that explores the power of photographic images and the importance of preserving our heritage. A collection of 10 million black and white photographs housed in a beautiful period building are threatened when new owners plan to turn it into a business school, sparking a battle to preserve their peaceful existence. As the characters fight to save their home, they uncover a mystery from the past hidden amongst the photos, which has a profound impact on their lives. This meditation on the nature of photographic images is a celebration of old-world English eccentricity and a reminder that nothing in our heritage is sacred. With its unique blend of drama and intrigue, Shooting The Past is a compelling read for anyone interested in exploring the complexities of human relationships and the importance of preserving our cultural legacy.
