Wild Swimming
By Marek Horn. A battle of the sexes and a wilfully ignorant history of English Literature. Directed by Becky Ripley.
Nell (Aimee-Ffion Edwards) and Oscar (Joseph Tweedale) meet on a deserted beach in Dorset. It鈥檚 1595. Or maybe it鈥檚 1610. Oscar has returned from his first term at university and Nell is bored out her brains. They will meet here, on this same beach, again and again for the next 400 years. Stuff will change, as it does with time. They will try to keep up.
Wild Swimming is a battle of the sexes, an interrogation of privilege and a wilfully ignorant history of English Literature.
Written by Marek Horn, from an original concept by Marek Horn and Julia Head. Produced by multi award-winning director Becky Ripley.
