The movie was made by the director Kumar Shahani in India (the place of Bion's birth) in 1982-1983, but never finished owing, in part, to financial difficulties and a tragic event. Extant scenes will be shown and Michael will lead audience discussion. The script was written by Kumar Shahani and Meg Harris Williams. Actors include Angela Pleasance, Sir Nigel Hawthorne, Peter Firth, Alaknanda Samarth, Carol Drinkwater, Robert Burbage, Jonathan Page, Neil Cunningham, Jalal Agha. Characters are drawn from phases of Bion's life and psyche and the culture of his time. |
