RELEASING 2008

DIR : Terence Davies, Finland, 1989

Sharmill Films is proud to be re-releasing Distant Voices Still Lives, a much loved film that has been impossible to see for years.

Terrence Davies' Distant Voices Still Lives is an autobiography of the Davies family and working class life in Liverpool. The marriage of their eldest child and the funeral of their father both evoke memories of the family's past, including their lives through the war years. This film is considered one of the most haunting 'musicals' of modern cinema

". . .but I'll say it again: this film is a masterpiece." Andrew Pulver - The Guardian
