Britain is an island shaped by memory, migration, and the persistence of the past in the present.
Over the course of a year, filmmaker Boris Thompson-Roylance filmed pre-Christian ceremonies and seasonal traditions across the country, pagan practices aligned with the Wheel of the Year, structured around solstices, equinoxes, and moments of transition.
Set against these rituals of return and renewal, The Land Remains asks how myth and landscape are used to define the idea of Britain, and how land, migration, and belonging continue to shape national identity today.
The work features prominent voices from the folk community, including folk singer and song collector Sam Lee and alchemist and apothecarist Charlotte Pulver.
