Colour Box 2: In Full Swing
Saturday 9 - Sunday 17 May
This programme is no longer available
Take your seat, the show is about to start... Our second family programme features a woodland concert for a host of furry friends in Maestro, while in Angel’s Trumpet a hummingbird keeps mistaking brass instruments for flowers. Iulia Voitova’s graduation film The Diver offers a dizzying view from the top board, and in Spanish timelapse short Muedra a clay creature must navigate a hostile landscape.
