The Fantastic Life of Minnie Rubinski

Step into the brain of Minnie Rubinski as she remembers episodes from an astonishing life well lived.

A series of short films, in no particular order, tell Minnie’s tales of her student life, marriage, motherhood, domestic boredom and fantastic careers, all enacted by puppets full of character, filmed in exquisitely detailed period sets.

Created from real life ‘phone calls and family anecdotes this is a show full of love for an astonishing real woman. It is a profound, entertaining recognition of all that our elders have known and been in their lifetimes.

“…it’s perhaps the rich detail of that real-life origin that makes The Fantastic Lie of Minnie Rubinski such an outstanding piece of work”. Joyce McMillan, The Scotsman
