Presented by Big Picture Festival - Stratford upon Avon
Set in the late 1800s in rural England, Gone to Earth focuses on the life of Hazel, a poor country girl who is sensitive, caring, and fiercely independent. She loves and understands wild animals more than the people around her, her only friends being half-tame forest creatures, including a fox she has raised. Her life takes a turn, however, when she catches the eye of the lecherous fox-hunting local squire. This film beautifully captures the natural landscapes of Shropshire and explores themes of love, superstition, and the struggle between Hazel’s wild spirit and societal expectations.
