Product Overview

'The 1993 film 'Orlando' (Sally Potter), follows the four hundred year journey of a young British aristocrat who has been graced, or some might say cursed, with immortality. Halfway through the film Orlando (Tilda Swinton) undergoes a transformation from man to woman and finds him/herself confronting eighteenth and nineteenth century society's narrow and confining attitudes towards femininity.'
