MY
SECRET WORLD: THE STORY OF SARAH RECORDS + LIVE PERFORMANCE FROM
CATENARY WIRES (Amelia Fletcher and Rob Pursey)
8pm, ?8
The
first feature length documentary to explore Sarah Records, the
influential and often misunderstood label, followed by a live
performance from The Catenary Wires (Amelia Fletcher and Rob Pursey
of Heavenly / Talulah Gosh).
Ethics
and passion in their purest form. Welcome to the world of Sarah
Records, active between 1987-1995, and possibly the most indie of all
indie labels. This is a documentary where principles prevail and
attitude and actions are just as important as the music. Heroics
and belligerence, ephemeral-eternal-pop, fanzines and the
incorruptible founders Clare Wadd and Matt Haynes. Their inspirations,
the records, the bands, the letters, the long list of journalists
that detested Sarah, the fans that love Sarah?The defiance and
determination of our founding duo and and their final declaration.
Their focus on something that was non-commercial and exciting, as
if music could change lives and mean SOMETHING. My Secret World is
a resounding reminder that music doesn't need to be about
posturing, production or money to be an outright success.
Directed
and funded by Lucy Dawkins, My Secret World has been 4 years in the
making.
