The Flats

In the apartment in the HLM tower, Joe relives his childhood memories and is joined by Jolene, Sean, Angie, and other neighbors in this process. This collective memory shaped their lives and the area they lived in. The film presents to the audience the events that occurred during this period and the impact of these events on people. The film also reminds its viewers of the importance of making sense of the past and recalling personal and collective memories.

The film was primarily shot in and around Belfast.
