Local film and Q&A session with filmmaker!
Join us for a special screening of Gossip: a 16th-century tale of community, power, and resistance.
“A prescient and beautifully rendered portrayal of patriarchal subjugation.” Directors Notes
Set in 1584 in East Anglia, this historical short film tells the untold story of witches as they really were—midwives, healers, women with knowledge and power.
The film is now touring across East Anglia, bringing the story to the communities and places it reflects. After the film we will be joined by filmmaker Hannah Renton (Gossip’s writer-director) and singer and composer Kate Huggett for a Q&A and discussion, exploring the making of the film, as well as the history, themes and their relevance today.
Gossip is touring across East Anglia this Spring. For dates, more info and to stay up to date please follow @hanlaren or look at www.hannahrentonfilm.com/gossipthetour for updates. If you are interested in hosting a screening please get in touch.
