About

Taking its title from the French Surrealist artist, Claude Cahun’s incomplete memoir (Confidences au miroir, 1945-1954), the film follows Cahun’s text and includes her early and later life and work as well as her political propaganda activity and imprisonment in Jersey with her partner Suzanne Malherbe during the Nazi occupation of the island. The tracing of a life is made conscious through the projection of images of the couple’s home in Jersey into a domestic London setting. Following the screening, Sarah will be in conversation with Maria Walsh after the screening. Refreshments will be provided.
