One of our features:

HORRIBLE CREATURE (2019, Ireland)

Director Áine Stapleton

Horrible Creature is an experimental dance film inspired by the life of Lucia Joyce, daughter of Irish writer James Joyce.She trained as a professional dancer in France with avant-garde choreographers including Raymond Duncan and Margaret Morris and toured throughout Europe with her group Les Six de Rythme et Couleur. She was forced to quit dancing, due to an unexplained accident of ill-health in the early 1930s. She was then incarcerated by her brother Giorgio, and left in psychiatric care for approximately 47 years, until her death in 1982. 'Horrible Creature' purposely avoids the clichés which are often associated with her story. It is written from Lucia's own words and expressed through the art form which was her passion.
