This screening will be introduced and followed by a conversation with the director. A free spirited film revolving around Martin Creed's childhood memories. A little boy growing up, seen through the eyes and hair of a young woman. A coming-of-age story told in episodes from conception through the very earliest moments of infanthood to high school, art education and first love. An interwoven story of clothes moves up the body from socks and shoes to trousers and hats. Along the way, various useful guidelines for different aspects of life are presented in the form of chapters on "The Trouser Problem" and "What Are Moustaches For?". Based on a true story, memories were filmed in the places where they happened like the Lenzie Academy in Glasgow and Las Vegas. Martin Creed (born 1968, Wakefield, United Kingdom) is one of the leading figures in contemporary conceptual art. An artist, performer, composer and 'punk poet', he has made a name for himself through an extremely diverse body of work that is by turns radical, entertaining, provocative and poetic.He was awarded the Turner Prize in 2001 for The Lights Going On And Off, Work No. 227. His works are held in prestigious collections around the world.
