Stop Motion + Q&A with composer Lola de la Mata

Ella Blake is a stop-motion animator who is struggling to control her demons after the loss of her overbearing mother.
Suddenly alone in the world, she embarks upon the creation of a macabre new puppet film, which soon becomes the battleground for her sanity.
As Ella’s mind starts to fracture, the characters in her animated film take on a terrifying life of their own, and the unleashed power of her imagination threatens to destroy her.
Following the screening we are delighted to welcome the film's composer Lola de la Mata for a live Q&A.
Lola de la Mata is a London born French/Spanish conceptual sound artist, composer, curator and musician (violin/voice/theremin). She harnesses improvisation in collaborative performances with fellow musicians, dancers and queer performance artists, most recently with Eve Stainton. Tinnitus and aural diversity are at the core of her research practice, inspiring glass, metal, and ceramic musical instruments. Her upcoming project Oceans on Azimuth is released May 8th, for which her gaze is focused on the architecture of the ear and its auditory illusions. She has received commissions from the Riot Ensemble, Zubin Kanga, Nonclassical, Lisson Gallery, Spitalfields Music Festival, Selina Thompson Theatre Company, and crafted soundtracks for experimental film, documentary, and the award winning feature film STOPMOTION by Robert Morgan.
