Hunky Dory
Directed by Marc Evans
Produced by Atlantic Swiss Productions, Panaramic
A warm, energetic 1970s coming-of-age comedy about a passionate drama teacher rallying apathetic teenagers to stage Shakespeare, suffused with period charm and the joy of creative collaboration.
In the heat of the summer of 1976, drama teacher Vivienne fights sweltering heat and general teenage apathy to put on an end-of-term version of Shakespeare's The Tempest.
