Our take
Voiced by Vanessa Redgrave in place of the late Paul Scofield, the concluding chapter of Patrick Keiller’s psychogeographic trilogy culminates in a scathing critique of the failures of capitalism. This enthralling blend of fiction and film essay takes Robinson firmly into the new millennium.
