About The Tragicall Historie of Ophelia Eve
A cinematic journey through object, shadow, and traditional puppetry,
this short film reveals a dark alternate world of absurd control and creative rebellion.
From Mark Crane (writer/director) and Lyndie Wright MBE (puppet designer — Cyrano, Atonement), and featuring Ronnie Le Drew (Labyrinth, Muppet Christmas Carol), the film is both an artistic experiment and a political whisper behind the curtain.
