What is New Town Utopia about? Toggle content

In New Town Utopia, a feature documentary film, the British new town of Basildon, Essex becomes the focal point for exploring utopian dreams and concrete realities. Through a cast of colorful characters, art, architecture, and even angry puppets, the film delves into the impact of Thatcher's right-to-buy policy on social housing, the neglect of creative facilities by the government, and the demonization of working-class people by the media. Narrated through a poetic lens, New Town Utopia offers a challenging yet playful perspective on society and nationhood.
