Synopsis
A spellbinding performance film by Iain Forsyth and Jane Pollard, bringing to life the remarkable story the extraordinary Geraldine Flower, and the discovery of a suitcase of letters sent to her in the 1960s and 70s that inspired acclaimed Icelandic singer/songwriter Emilíana Torrini to return to the studio.
Part film, part theatre, part fever dream — THE EXTRAORDINARY MISS FLOWER takes the form of a series of specially designed performances by Emilíana and her band, combined with dramatic scenes and readings from letters by well-known actors and musicians. It's ultimately a heartfelt love letter to the enduring power of creativity and friendship.
