In the past, we would stick our photos on cardboard albums, keep our letters and other correspondence safely tucked away and display our music and movies on our bookshelves.

Bugs and Beasts Before the Law is an experimental film that explores the mediaeval practice of putting animals on trial.

The film re-imagines common perceptions of legal history and, in doing so, produces a world where past and present, fiction and non-fiction, fuse.
