Programme Note

Illuminations Films and Hans De Wolf at Keyfilm (NL) are currently shooting a pilot film for their up coming feature film adaptation of Henry James's 1903 novella The Beast In The Jungle, which they have in development with the BFI and the Netherlands film fund. Clara Van Gool is directing the project which she has been writing with poet Glyn Maxwell and designing with choreographer Kim Brandstrup.

Clara's films are all beautiful visual stories expressed through dance, mise en scène and montage and create a bridge between art and feature films. This will be her first narrative drama and she will use all these methods to tell John Marcher's unusual story
