About this Death Cafe
As part of this Death Café, young documentary filmmaker Olivia Humphries will show her 20 minute film ‘Noctuaries’.

Olivia was a teenager when her mother died: “In the ten years since my mother's death, my family and I have had frequent, vivid and profoundly moving dreams about her.” 'Noctuaries' looks at how she, her father, her mother’s parents and her mother’s best friend have responded to these dreams, and how they have formed part of their grieving.
She is a documentary filmmaker based in London, and has just finished a Masters in Screen Documentary at Goldsmiths. She won the RTS's Best Postgraduate Factual Film award and Best Documentary at Exposures Film Festival. Her films have been screened in around forty festivals worldwide, including the East End Film Festival, Brazil's It's All True Festival and the BFI's London LBGT Festival.
