Presented as part of CINECITY - The Brighton Film Festival

FILM: Woman in the Dunes / 1964 / 2hrs 5mins / Rated 15 / Subtitled

A one-off ‘Draw to Film’ event for anyone who wants to explore drawing, mark-making, music and film in new ways. Suitable for all skill levels, from beginners to artists, this special event will be a sensory entry point into the world of film, with a special projection of Hiroshi Teshigahara's mystifying, serene and provocative fable about an entomologist who becomes trapped in a young widow’s desert shack, psychologically and erotically entangled in her strange existence, which includes a daily ritual of shovelling away endlessly drifting sand.

This event, led by experienced artist-facilitator, Jane Fordham, will be an opportunity to view and respond to this stunning film. You will be drawing in the dark and will be encouraged to capture not what is necessarily there but your sense of what you see.

All necessary drawing materials are included in the ticket price, as well as a selection of tea and coffees. Participants will be invited to choose a setting which best suits them including easels, tables, board or the floor. Arrive early to secure a favoured setting. We recommend wearing warm layers.

Fabrica’s cafe-bar will be open on site, selling a selection of wine, beer and snacks.

Please note we are unable to admit late comers past 5.30pm so please arrive between 5pm-5.30pm to be admitted on time.
