Glow


Bagliore

Orange, New Jersey, the 1920s. The tragic story of a group of young women poisoned by the radium they painted on clock dials at the factory where they worked. Lawrence touchingly retells the grim tale of Grace Fryer, one of the young women who suffered medical injury and legal insult from exposure to the lethal industrial poison. Her case was taken up by the newspapers but later settled out of court.


Il regista / The Director

regista

After earning a degree in graphic design and a masters in illustration and animation at Kingston University, London, Jo Lawrence made her directorial debut with the short animated film Red Thread (2002), followed by 0800 (2003) and Zeuxis (2003).

«When I first heard the moving story of the “Radium Girls” it literally sent a shiver down my spine. My central aim with Glow was to communicate that same feeling. […] I wanted to show that the women’s contribution had not been forgotten. In the film, Grace Fryer becomes a radium ghost, symbolising the element returning to its source and therefore the women’s continuing influence to this day».
