‘In Pursuit of Repetitive Beats’ Returns to IDFA DocLab for its 20th Anniversary

We’re back at IDFA DocLab in Amsterdam, and this one means something. DocLab turns 20 this year, and In Pursuit of Repetitive Beats has been invited back as part of the anniversary – four years on from winning the DocLab Award for Immersive Non-Fiction here in 2022.

This time Beats shows in a new collective, multi-user format: up to four people travelling back to 1989 together, out to find an illegal rave somewhere in Coventry. It’s running at ENTR, Amsterdam’s new VR museum, from 14 to 18 November, with screenings every hour.

Darren and Dan are over for the festival too, giving a masterclass with CIIIC, the Creative Industries Immersive Impact Coalition, on what we’ve learned from the work and where immersive storytelling goes next.
