The final screening of the season will be Abi Palmer’s Slime Mother.
The film combines spoken word with languorous panning shots of slugs sliding, twisting and suspending from branches. A narrator’s voice guides us through a ‘slug-god world’, recounting memories of a childhood spent hating slugs, pouring salt and flicking them away, to a new perspective of worship, love and coexistence. Palmer’s words, combined with beautifully composed film work, transforms the slug from a hated body into the divine.
Tue 4-Sun 16 Mar, 11am-5pm. Free entry.
