7 Plus Seven

7 Plus Seven (1970) is a British documentary you can watch online on iFILM — director Michael Apted catches up with the same group of children first filmed at age seven in the 1964 landmark Seven Up!

Seven years on, the same faces are now teenagers. Apted asks the same questions about family, ambition and what they expect from life, and the answers already carry the weight of class and circumstance they couldn't yet name at seven. Fifty-two minutes, quiet and precise. The series ran for twelve installments — the last one, 63 Up, came out in 2019 — and this is where you start to see the long game.
