Gossip – Film Screening + Music + Q&A
Join in 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. The screening will be accompanied by a performance of folk and original songs by artist Saltings, reflecting on the portrayal of women and witches in our traditional music. Afterwards we will be joined for a Q&A by the musician and filmmaker.
Supported by BBC, British Film Institute (BFI), The National Lottery, National Film and Television School (NFTS).
