Images from the film Infirmary

Dance film shown at Festival

Infirmary is a short dance film created entirely on location inside the now abandoned Royal Infirmary in Worcester.

Made by local filmmaker, Matt Dukes and starring Worcester based dance company Angel Dance Co La, the film fuses emotive dance, film and sound to reveal the essence of a building in its deserted state of emptiness.

It is a powerful and absorbing journey that responds to the rawness of long empty corridors, vast foreboding hospital wards and intimate, concealed spaces.

All the artists involved in the production of the film are from Worcestershire including the filmmaker, dancers, costume designer, musician and poet.

Infirmary has been presented at various events, performances and festivals since its premiere in March this year, including three screenings during the Worcester Festival where it received great acclaim from audiences and organisers alike.
