Project Detail

Brenda and Alice

Synopsis

Brenda and Alice live in a crumbling Victorian house in Peckham with gloomy, atmospheric interiors, exposed wiring and a jumble of furniture. They are in their eighties and have lived together in the house for over 30 years. Brenda lives downstairs and Alice lives upstairs. Like the Odd Couple their characters are chalk and cheese. This ten minute documentary film is a portrait of their lives and their relationship.
