SYNOPSIS In a world savaged by pollution, it would seem impossible to comprehend a day-to-day life, but somehow normality must continue on. As inhabitants of this barren world gather their tools before heading out to JP stores, we follow one man navigate his way through his daily shop. Snorkels at the ready.
Aisle 17 was broadcast on BBC Introducing Arts (BBC4).
The Radio Times wrote that of the short films shown in the collection; “Aisle 17 is the most visually striking piece. A stylish, dystopian trip to the supermarket”.
