Sophia Al Maria Virgin with a Memory

More about the book

Composed of the novelisation of the script for Sophia Al-Maria’s unmade feature film Beretta, this book is composed of a cornucopia of material including emails, budgets, kit-lists, schedules, sketches, storyboards, headshots and excerpts from the script all illustrating what can happen when a young filmmaker’s creative process comes into contact with the crushing forces of politics and money. Published on the occasion of the exhibition Sophia Al-Maria: Virgin With A Memory at Cornerhouse, Manchester, 6 September – 2 November 2014.
