Event details

Join us for a special screening of ‘Gossip: A 16th Century Tale of Community, Power, and Resistance’


Supported by BBC, British Film Institute (BFI), The National Lottery, National Film and Television School (NFTS).

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 Gossip Tour website for updates.
