Ladies - Written and directed by Carol Stevens
Public location….. Private acts… Moments of intimacy, crisis and transformation in an Edwardian Ladies’ Public Cloakroom … Ladies come and go… insignificant objects are left behind. All is silently witnessed by the attendant, who carefully preserves these small discarded fragments of women’s hidden lives.
Produced in collaboration with Bristol Old Vic Theatre School.
Selected to screen in competition at Brest European Short Film Festival 2004, the Female Eye Festival Toronto 2005 and the Moondance Festival Colorado.
