In the summer of 2021, Sophie Fiennes filmed the London-based theatre company Cheek By Jowl to create this documentation of their unique process and philosophy. The result is a richly detailed celebration of theatre, as viewers watch 8 young thespians rehearse key scenes over two weeks in a derelict mansion. Strapping the camera to her body, Sophie provides an immersive experience that brings the methods and magic of Shakespearean acting to the screen.
