Discover the maverick behind some of the most iconic images of the past century on a road trip across England with photographer Martin Parr, whose subjects, frames and colours have revolutionised contemporary photography.

Since the 1970s, Parr has held up a mischievous, tender and critical mirror to British culture and lives. An often controversial photographer, Parr’s images often have the power to both amuse and leave us slightly uncomfortable – caught between laughter and uneasy recognition in his uncompromising depictions of consumer society. The definitive portrait of an extraordinary artist, Lee Shulman’s engaging and highly entertaining film explores Parr’s humanist and uniquely accessible photographic language.
