Marmalade
Synopsis
MARMALADE tells the story of Harry Hawkesworth’s experience during the Second World War, as a 10-year-old messenger boy for his local Air Raid Patrol. Now 95 years old, Harry is interviewed by his grandson, photographer Jamie Hawkesworth, for his debut film. He mentions biscuits, marmalade, and recollects the Italian prisoners of war he met who worked the land in his hometown of Tuffly, Gloucestershire. The film gracefully weaves the past and present together through Jarvis Cocker’s mesmerising score.
