As the water level rises by an isolated lakeside farm, so do suspicion and desperation of the trio who find themselves stranded there.
Programmer’s Note
The Raft of Medusa is a dream-like collage of visuals set to the soundtrack of a Simon Armitage radio drama based on a never realised screenplay by Derek Jarman, with whom Heslop was a close associate and cameraman. Jarman’s screenplay itself was inspired by Theodore Gericault’s painting by the same name.
