Open to the World

The documentary takes a look back at Miranda July's Artangel project, which was an unannounced interfaith charity shop launched in Selfridges, one of London's iconic department stores. Opened in August 2017, this shop was a collaboration between four religious charities, including Islamic Relief and the Jewish charity Norwood.

Set against the backdrop of designer boutiques, the film highlights the experience of running a thrift store that aimed to bring together diverse faith communities. The runtime of just 10 minutes allows for a concise yet impactful exploration of this innovative project.

For collectors interested in documentary films, Open to the World presents a unique perspective on the cultural dynamics of charity and fashion in a prominent retail space. Miranda July's distinctive approach to storytelling offers a thought-provoking examination of community engagement and social issues.
