Immerse yourself in Megan Rose Illustration‘s “The Jam Makers” – created for Nottingham Puppet Festival.

Premiering 5:30pm on Sunday 27 June 2021.

Previously a picture book but now brought to life for the first time as a shadow puppet film, The Jam Makers is an exploration of humanity, consumerism and the nature of observation in modern society. All portrayed through the isolation of a small fishing village somewhere on the fringes of the British Isles, and the events that follow after some mysterious conserve is deposited on their doorsteps.
