A captivating and revelatory piece of cinema; the film combines reenactments and monologues of recorded interviews with the individuals from Dunbar’s life, alongside archival footage, and scenes of The Arbor being reenacted in front of an unassuming crowd of residents who years from the writing of the play, now live in the play’s namesake ‘The Arbor’.
