“★★★★
A DOCUMENTARY THAT
DOES SOMETHING DIFFERENT…
Made by half-brothers Justin and Dominic Hardy, it explores
the way we deal with great art created by messy human beings.”
Eye for Film
THE WORLDWIDE DISC PREMIERE
With his 1973 directorial debut, Robin Hardy fought to craft what would eventually be recognized as one of the greatest horror movies ever made. But for his loved ones, Hardy created a very different kind of nightmare. Now art historian Dominic Hardy and filmmaker Justin Hardy (A FEAST AT MIDNIGHT) – half-brothers and self-described “far-flung spawn” – explore their late father’s complicated legacy in this “incredibly brave and touching documentary that will take you on a journey unlike any you’ve been on before” (Movie Jawn): Through stacks of decades-old correspondence, a pilgrimage to the original locations and new interviews with friends, family and the movie’s surviving personnel, Robin’s sons uncover the personal costs of the film’s chaotic production, their father’s war with studio British Lion, his bitter falling-out with friend, business partner and screenwriter Anthony Shaffer, the financial and sexual improprieties that tore families apart and their own lifelong traumas as CHILDREN OF THE WICKER MAN.
