For lovers of music, Kathleen Ferrier is truly unique. Her international career spanned just eight years between 1946 and 1953, but it was enough to place her among the greatest singers of all time. Drawing on a wealth of recently discovered material, including intimate home movies and photographs, this moving film sheds new light on her remarkable life and meteoric rise to fame.
Intertwined with digitally remastered recordings of her finest performances, including some never before released, the film features a rare sound interview recorded at the peak of her career that lends Ferrier's own distinctive voice to the story. This is a stirring portrait of an extraordinary woman who was in love with life and music, and whose glorious voice enthralled the whole world.
