TISH

TISH celebrates the vision of the photographer Tish Murtha, whose work powerfully and unforgettably captured the essence of working class communities. This feature length documentary tells the story of Tish’s struggles and achievements, questioning the value we put on art and artists from working class roots – as well as following Tish’s daughter Ella, in her drive to preserve her mother’s legacy.

Directed by Paul Sng, produced by Jen Corcoran of Freya Films in association with Hopscotch Films and Velvet Joy productions.  Maxine Peak voices Tish.

Tish opened the Sheffield Film Festival and is being distributed by Modern Films.
