How the BFI restored a film by trailblazing director Sir Horace Ové
The film storage at the BFI’s National Archive is a treasure trove of British movie history.
One reel that was taken to be restored earlier this year is of a film called Pressure, which was shot on the streets of west London in the 1970s.
It was the first British feature-length film to have a black director, Sir Horace Ové. He died in September at the age of 86 and leaves this work as part of a remarkable legacy.
