Zed Nelson talks about The Street, his new film on Brexit and gentrification in East London

We caught up with Zed Nelson before the release of his debut feature length documentary, The Street. Zed spent three years ingratiating himself amongst the residents of Hoxton Street, traditionally a working class area of East London that has been the subject of recent, massive changes. Strategically placed on the border between the wealthy commercial centre of London and the traditionally lower income East End, rapid gentrification has sent property prices rocketing, pushing out residents and business owners. Zed’s film is a study of a once typically working class area is struggling to accommodate an influx of wealthier residents, and illustrates poetically the divisions of Brexit. The Street is in Cinemas from today.
