Via the Brontë Parsonage's Twitter we have realized that Lily Cole's Balls short film is now being streamed online:


A short fiction film exploring the hypothetical origins of Wuthering Heights Heathcliff - based on true stories of foundlings from 18th and 19th Century England that might have inspired Emily Brontë's character.
Balls was commissioned by the Brontë Parsonage Museum and Foundling Museum, with support from RRU Liverpool and Impossible. It was produced by Fury Films.
Balls exhibited in both museums to celebrate Emily Brontë's 200th birthday on July 30th 2018.
Balls was selected as The Guardian’s Exhibition of the Week; nominated for Best Director, Best Producer and the XX Award at Underwire Festival; and nominated for Best Film in Official Competition, at London Short Film Festival.
