2011 saw the worst urban riots in England for at least a generation and a half.
The source of much political and public speculation, five years on most people remain in the dark about why these riots occurred.
‘Riot from Wrong’ is a unique documentary film, made by a group of 14 young people from north London, which sheds light on one of the most important recent events in British urban history.
The event will be introduced by Professor Tim Newburn who led the Guardian and LSE’s pathbreaking ‘Reading the Riots’ research, and the film screening will be followed by a discussion involving the film-makers, Fully Focused.
