Project Detail

A Love

Synopsis

An approach to local history unfolding. The film foregrounds quiet, tender engagement, forms of love, absence, and ritual. A deliberate lack of language underlines recurring inadequacies to express uproot and deeply felt emotions engendered.
A LOVE considers individual and collective loss, value, and necessity for communal recognition.

A Blemished Code A Blemished Code

Director: Anne-Marie Copestake

Year: 2017

A poetic study of the life and work of artist Margaret Benyon, pioneer in the artistic use of holography. Giving voice to the unsung legacy of a pioneering woman artist, 'A Blemished Code' is an impassioned meditation on the representation of female artists, the balancing of creative and domestic life, and the inherent tensions of being a woman working with new technology. The inner life of the subject is represented throughout by a brilliant musical score featuring sung script and compositions by Stevie Jones, Mai Mai, and Leigh Ferguson.
