Description

Uncanny encounters in a graveyard! A mysterious cast assemble for this enigmatic art house parody by Terence McDonald. Enjoy unpicking the threads of an uncanny story filled with hints that question reality, like the opening text, which translates as  "Let there be truth between us" a quote from Act 3 of Goethe's Iphigenia in Tauris.


 

Notes

Terence McDonald (1926 – 2001) was a teacher and a pioneering amateur filmmaker from Derry. He made 35 films in his lifetime covering a wide range of themes such as mental health, travelling theatre, and portraits of his home town Derry. Terence McDonald undertook all aspects of production - filming, sound recording and editing and produced a body of remarkably sophisticated work. This film is courtesy of his son, Peter McDonald. You can watch more of his films on the BFI Player.
