Description

Visual Search (The Granada Film and Video Awards): Special Craft category - a drama documentary which examines the Lancaster witch trials of 1612. Starting with the typical image of the witches cauldron, the video looks at the events which result in the death of 10 Lancashire women, whom it describes as 'poor simple women, wrongly accused.'
