Story: A filmmaker looks at the history and transformation of his birthplace, Liverpool, England.

Terence Davies (1945- ), filmmaker and writer, takes us, sometimes obliquely, to his childhood and youth in Liverpool. Hes born Catholic and poor; later he rejects religion. He discovers homo-eroticism, and its tinged with Catholic guilt. Enjoying pop music gives way to a teenage love of Mahler and Wagner. Using archival footage, we take a ferry to a day on the beach. Postwar prosperity brings some positive change, but its concrete architecture is dispiriting. Contemporary colors and sights of children playing may balance out the presence of unemployment and persistent poverty. Davies narration is a mix of his own reflections and the poems and prose of others.
