INSIDE
The Childhood of an Artist
An evocative virtual reality experience from director Sacha Wares with music by Dan Jones and Evelyn Glennie.
For the first seven years of her childhood, American artist Judith Scott shared a bed with the twin sister who adored her. One night, everything changed.
This beautiful multi-sensory biography transports you to a sunkissed 1950’s family home in Ohio, placing you at the heart of Judith Scott’s devastating story of love and separation.
