Contribution short abstract:

The Lindisfarne Causeway is a road that disappears into the sea twice a day. What happens to ethnography when one hangs out “deeply” at the side of a road?

Contribution long abstract:

For three months, the filmmaker sat beside the Lindisfarne Causeway, a road that disappears into the sea twice a day. What happens to ethnography when one hangs out “deeply” at the side of a road? The filmmaker uses boredom and daydreaming as an approach to getting to know a place. A poetic world of tarmac silence, howling seals, seaweed and ice-cream men.
