IN THE WOODS (2009) 24mins, MiniDV Deep in a Kentish woodland, an overgrown quarry plays host to an up and coming music festival. The Laurel Collective, a London based six piece, clear leaf, twig and tree; assemble scaffold and haul tarpaulin. A bonfire is built and a wickerman is pulled into position. A captivated audience watches the eight band line up before falling into the heat of a 2am bonfire. With Anna Calvi, Connan Mockasin, Alessi's Ark, Screaming Tea Party, Pete and the Pirates, Micachu and the Shapes, Laurel Collective and The Invisible, In The Woods is an awe inspiring weekend.
