Sulphur is an improvised dive into folk tradition and the macabre – a short film shot during the pagan celebrations of bonfire night in Lewes, Sussex.
The film follows the descent of a young couple, falling into a rabbit hole of intoxication, pagan ritual, celebrate and hostility. As they lose each other, they also lose their grip on reality…
Mixing documentary and drama – production of the film saw the actors and two crews cast into the cauldron of Lewes’ annual bonfire festivities.
Written and Directed by Christopher Ian Smith – Sulphur also features a soundtrack with the analogue electronics of Concretism and edited by audiovisual master Xavier Perkins (Exceeda).
