No Pocket Film Festival would be complete without a performance by the sublime Meg Morley. This year we are really excited to welcome back Meg again, to deliver a live accompaniment to "The Passion of Joan of Arc”, a film which is widely considered to be the best silent film of all time.
Director by Carl Theodor Dreyer the film tells the story of the doomed, but ultimately canonized 15th century teenage warrior. The screening will take place at Holy Trinity Church, Eccleshall where Meg will bring the festival to a close with a sublime live piano accompaniment to this silent visual masterpiece.
We are also proud to be screening Ten Degrees of Strange - Lynn Tomlinson, (WINNER, Best Commissioned Animation, Ottawa International Animation Festival 2021), before Dreyer’s masterpiece.
