The Tape is written and directed by folk musician Martha Tilston who is also the lead actor. After the screening Martha will discuss and answer questions as well as give a live performance of some of her songs. In the film she plays Tally Green, Cornwall’s worst cleaner, who is living in a van and making ends meet. When she gets a job at an empty cliff-top house, she is drawn to the piano and moves in, beginning to write music inspired by its poetic owner, and recording it on an old 4-track machine. The film is full of Tilston’s wonderful music. “Sharp, original songs that dissect the modern world. Tilston captures both the harshness and enchantment of life. The Tape is a true feat of creativity, with Martha recording the soundtrack in scene on-set, whilst shooting and starring in the film”.
