Tin (12A)

Directed by Bill Scott.

Starring: Jenny Agutter, Dudley Sutton, Ben Luxon.

Running time 94 minutes

Includes Introduction and Q&A session with Director Bill Scott. This Cornish production by Miracle Theatre is set in West Cornwall in 1895. A once-glorious tin mine, mainstay of the local economy, is on its last legs. A weather-beaten opera company arrives to give a performance of Beethoven’s “Fidelio” in the town hall and finds itself tangled in a scam to offload worthless shares in the mine. When the mine unexpectedly yields new treasures, melodrama starts to spill over into everyday life. ‘A major achievement for Cornish film-making’.
