Dreams of a Life

In this powerful and thought-provoking documentary-drama hybrid, the filmmaker embarks on an imaginative and deeply personal journey to uncover the life of Joyce Vincent, whose remains were discovered in her London bedsit three years after her death. Through interviews with those who knew her and reconstructions of her life (starring Ashton and Cornell John), the film paints a poignant and multifaceted portrait of Joyce - a woman who was different things to different people - and shines a light on the isolation and loneliness that can exist in the midst of a bustling city. As the film delves into Joyce's life, it also raises important questions about how we connect with others and how little we may ever truly know each other. Ultimately, it is a film about love, loss, identity, urban life, contemporary life, and how we are all connected in ways we may never fully comprehend - a story that will stay with you long after the credits roll.
