In Detail

With Jack nowhere to be seen, Anna finds herself evicted from the family home. She turns to the local Reverend, Charles Wilson (Richard Dee-Roberts) and his housekeeper, Miss Evans (Judith Paris), for help. But then Jack Simpson (Julian Gamm) returns, with tragic consequences.

Decades later, a chance discovery by a gravedigger makes news headlines. A forty-year-old secret is about to be unearthed. This is a timely powerful period drama, beautifully realised and with a poignant message. Directed by local Richard Dee-Roberts.

While the film didn't use Sussex locations, much of the post-production work was carried out in the director’s home in Chichester and the composer, Johnny Yates, also resides in Horsham, Sussex.

We hope to welcome director Richard Dee-Roberts and cast members Anne Scherliess (Anna Simpson); Judith Paris (Miss Evans); and Wendy Morgan (Pat Turner) to introduce their film and hold a Q&A afterwards.
