All White In Barking / Men Of The City Marc Isaacs

Double bill of documentaries from Marc Isaacs. 'All White in Barking' (2007) examines the attitudes the white citizens of Barking have towards the immigrants living in the area. These attitudes generally involve prejudices which focus on what clothes the immigrants wear, the religion they follow and the food they eat.

'Men of the City' (2009) follows a trader, a street-sweeper, an immigrant and an insurance agent in London as they attempt to move forward in the economic crisis and discover their place in the capital city.
