Britten - The Turn of the Screw, Benjamin Britten;s haunting and sinister opera, composed in 1954, is based on the famous novella written by Henry James in 1898. Katie Mitchell;s atmospheric and innovative film of the opera returns to the late 19th Century setting of the original story, Fulbeck Hall in Lincolnshire. The ghostly atmosphere of the music is perfectly re-created by clever lighting techniques and faded colours of the costumes. Visual inspiration is from the photographic work of Julia Margaret Cameron, Munch, Strindberg and the early Spiritualists. The result is a world where the boundaries between the living and the dead are chillingly blurred.
