Space to Be

About This Movie

So, 'Space to Be' is this gritty documentary set in a very specific part of Belfast, the Windsor Women's Centre, which has been a lifeline for many women in the area. The film really captures the essence of community and resilience, showing how these women band together through financial struggles and the challenges of the pandemic. The tone is raw and authentic, with a pacing that reflects the ebb and flow of their daily lives. The practical effects are non-existent, but the real-life performances from the women involved are incredibly powerful. It’s sort of like peeling back layers of a place that’s rich with stories, making you feel the weight of their fight and the importance of their space. Quite distinctive in its focus on local issues, rather than broad strokes.
