SCREENING #2
THE KINGDOM OF SHADOWS
THE KINGDOM OF SHADOWS is a personal reworking of the Adam & Eve and Cain & Abel stories, inspired by dreams, alchemy and family history.
Artist filmmakers Daniel Fawcett & Clara Pais, founders of The Underground Film Studio, create experimental visionary feature films, expanded cinema performances and installations.
Their work explores the language and forms of cinema as an arena for modern ritual in which one can engage with personal and collective myths. They are proving to be at the forefront of artists’ cinema creating challenging and genre-defying films, expanding the possibilities of cinema as an art form.
Alongside their work as artists, they programme screenings and events and publish FILM PANIC Magazine.
