Sands Films Cinema Club online AND IN PERSON!
A story told in two films; Sands Films production of the first screen adaptation of Charles Dickens’ novel.
This will be a live presentation about the films and an explainer of the "two point of views" concept behind the films.
It will be also the first time, for over a year, that the Film club is with a real audience...

The book is so rich in characters and Dickens is so able to show the humanity in each of them that the film, instead of a long story cut in two halves, became two films, each telling the story, seen from the particular point of view of the two main characters. “Nobody’s Fault” is the way Arthur Clennam sees things: his mother, his life, his work, his failures in love and in business… and his blindness to Little Dorrit’s love.
Then, “Little Dorrit’s Story” is the life of Amy Dorrit, born in a debtor’s prison, growing up and looking after her father; becoming rich and all the while keeping people and things together… and her blind love for Arthur Clennam.
