Call Me Back

Call me back is an ethno-science fiction film that follows James Hudson-Wright in dialogue with himself. James is filmed during 2014-2018 discussing his life and the impact of climate change with his present persona and imagined future selves from the years 2036 and 2056. The scenes intercut with the gradually changing environment of the protagonist and explore how the participant relates to the future through his imagination and how it impacts his lived experience in present and future temporalities.

Johannes Sjöberg is a lecturer in Screen Studies in Drama at the University of Manchester. He specialises in screen practice as research, and his interests revolve around the boundaries between artistic and academic approaches to research and representation. His approach is based on the practice and critical study of qualitative research methods, such as extended fieldwork and participant observation. He uses participatory and improvisational art forms to mediate complex cultural understanding to the popular audience within a reflexive context. This approach has developed as a research interest through film and theatre education, freelance work as an actor and filmmaker.
