Gigs In Bristol Today

Events on Friday 6th November

“Based on a famous article published at the high of the pandemic in The New York Times, Homebound explores how structural precarity through caste, religion, class and economic pressures defines and limits the lives of the protagonists, two young men with dreams of escaping poverty. Two Days, One Night exposes our reality today. Workers pitted against workers just to survive. Neoliberalism has normalised precarity. Eroded workers solidarity. The Dardenne brothers’ concern is to explore what it feels like to lie under crushing precarity.”
From: Bristol Radical Film Festival 2026 - Precarity double bill
