Details

Based on documentary material from the real life court case of children Mary and Norma Bell, who were tried in 1968 for the murder of two younger boys. Fanny and Faggot is a startling, darkly comic drama which plays games with the audience and pulls them into the fantasies of two dangerously bored pre-teens. What happens when children do terrible, irreversible wrong? Can we punish evil in those that don't understand it? And when punishment has been served, can we allow them to have a 'normal' life? Running time approx. 2 hours.
