Provenance had its world premiere at the East End Film Festival on 17 June 2017,[5] scoring 10/10 for its first rating after the festival.[6]

Synopsis

A classical musician travels to the South of France to escape his demons and wait for his new love, a younger woman named Sophia (played by British rising star Charlotte Vega).

Trying to come to peace with his new life in these slow, peaceful surroundings, the musician's seemingly chance meeting with Peter (Harry Macqueen) will threaten to derail everything.

The debut feature from lauded cinematographer Ben Hecking (nominated for the Accession Award for his work in Hide & Seek at the EEFF 2014[8]) is a tangled web of passion, trauma, memory, and love, all building towards a great, operatic tragedy.

A three-hander held together by the central performances and the increasingly claustrophobic setting of a country house, Provenance is a devastating tale of people who can’t escape their pasts.[9]
