Leonora Carrington: The Lost Surrealist

Leonora Carrington: The Lost Surrealist (2017) is a documentary, tv movie film directed by Teresa Griffiths rated 7.9/10.

British surrealist Leonora Carrington was a key part of the surrealist movement during its heyday in Paris and yet, until recently, remained a virtual unknown in the country of her birth. This film explores her dramatic evolution from British debutante to artist in exile, living out her days in Mexico City, and takes us on a journey into her darkly strange and cinematic world.
