Screening as part of Willie Doherty’s exhibition Remnant at Solstice Arts Centre, Doherty’s film ENDLESS and a separate selection of Doherty’s film work can be viewed in our theatre throughout the run of the show.

Information and screen times can be found below.

ENDLESS

ENDLESS, a film produced in 2020 by Willie Doherty, makes its premiere cinematic screening at Solstice. A sublimely powerful work, the film features a provocatively restrained performance by Christopher Eccleston as a man alone, someone and no-one, disappearing into shadows of black and white. ENDLESS evokes an atmosphere of restrictive containment and eternal unrelenting constraint.

Film Programme

Since the 1980s, Willie Doherty has been a pioneering figure in contemporary art, video, and photography. Doherty’s video works tend to begin as responses to specific terrains (most often mysterious isolated settings; places, we suspect, with a troubled past) and evolve as complex reflections on how we look at such locations – or on what stories might be told about their hidden histories.

Screening a selection of films by Willie Doherty, the program includes: Sometimes I Imagine It’s My Turn (1998), Non-Specific Threat (2004), Passage (2006), Closure (2005), Ancient Ground (2011), The Amnesiac (2014), and Buried (2009).
