where is heaven? Devon documentary now showing at Exeter Phoenix
Filmed over 10 years entirely in Devon, local documentary ‘where is heaven?’ has sold out across the country. ‘where is heaven?’ is now screening at Exeter Phoenix, on April 27th.
Maverick soulmates Ged and Dave are on a mission through the winding lanes and hidden tracks of North Devon, to record the lives and experiences of people living without mains electricity. Filming 'where is heaven?' over 10 years, they captured not only the beauty of this often harsh environment but also the spirit of the wonderful off-grid characters who inhabit it.
A diverse collection of people whose stories at first appear meandering tributaries but quickly swell to become an intricate weave of philosophies and vibrant wit, uniting around our common search for happiness. This rich tapestry of personalities, stunning landscapes and the musical accompaniment of Cosmo Sheldrake combine to deliver the film's unique and extraordinary soul. Electrically charged with a seductive power not supplied by the National Grid.
This 2023 winner of the Brighton Cine City Best film Audience Award is now following in the footsteps of previous winner ‘The Nettle Dress’, becoming a similar grassroots phenomenon, both locally and nationally.
Come down to Exeter Phoenix to see these beautiful and unusual Devon stories.
