Moving & Nothing Echoes Here: Films About Grief by Tracey Miller and Jimmy Hay

How do local filmmakers capture the shape of loss and grief on screen?Filmed on location in Weston-super-Mare, Moving by Tracey Miller follows five households navigating the messy reality of moving home, from the quiet sting of heartbreak to the cold spark of revenge. Accompanied by its behind-the-scenes documentary, the film offers an authentic look at how moving on isn't about letting go, but about finding warmth, community and unexpected humour amid the chaos of starting fresh.
Nothing Echoes Here by Jimmy Hay charts a 36-hour period in the life of a woman and her two children, in the near-aftermath of the death of their husband and father. The film explores the role that space - interior, exterior, familiar, non-familiar - plays for those grieving a profound loss, while using formal elements of film language and performance to portray grief in an authentic and empathetic manner, prioritising a sense of experience over story and narrative.
