Tate Modern are showing a series of short films (around 5mins) on the theme of landscape from Friday 6 February – Sunday 8 February. TATE link. The overall series relates to a link between UK and Australia, however taken individually the films deal with very relevant issues, such as time, place and being in the landscape. Programme 3 'Surroundings' seems particularly relevant as a set of films. More info here.
