A documentary about witchcraft, superstitions and the occult.

Music preformed live by the amazing "Tyneside Supergroup"! Members of the supergroup include:

 

- Mark Wardlaw -

“Mark Wardlaw, aka Kenosist, operates in the murky depths where the outer fringes of techno, noise, jazz, and folk collide. For his Haxan contribution, he will be combining medieval instruments (hurdy gurdy, rauschpfeife) with modular processing and Sacred Harp-inspired vocal improvisations.”

 

- Cath Tyler -

"Stalwart of the UK folk scene with transatlantic folk punk roots. Mixing it up with voice, electronics and soundscape perception amplification."

 

- Lindsay Duncanson (Pinnel) -

"Live looping voice and electronics solo project of Lindsay Duncanson constructing detailed soundscapes through vocal improvisation."

 

- Mariam Rezaei -

"Award winning international turntablist- In her hands vinyl becomes an unexpected instrument of sound explosion and rhythmic complexity, turning the everyday to the uncanny."
