Craft of Bellringing, The

Synopsis: A documentary showing the craft of bellringing as seen from the inside. From the origin of bells to modern day ringing, from small-town parishes to some of the most famous cathedrals, the film covers virtually all aspects of the world of ringing. Featuring the first edition of Tintinnalogia, the very first book to be written about bellringing, and exclusive interviews with leading experts of the field, the film also takes us on an intellectual journey that explores the craft’s rich cultural heritage.

Aimed at ringers and non-ringers alike, the film offers an insight to everyone. Ringers will appreciate the little-know aspects of the art, the spectacular cathedrals and seeing familiar faces on-screen, while non-ringers will be treated to a comprehensive introduction to the subject.
