The Man Behind the Masquerade

BBC Four 2009

Wonderful portrait of the British artist Kit Williams who created the pictorial storybook “Masquerade”. The book contained the clues to the location of a jewelled hare, made by Kit and then buried, causing a crazy countrywide hunt to discover and unearth it. The film look at his life since then and the mystery of, “what did ever happened to that Hare?” The film captures the multilayers of Kit’s craft and his very private personality to deliver a beautiful, insightful and respectful piece.
