Synopsis:

Strawberry Fields is the story of two sisters who both like the same man but in different ways and is a bold and inventive melodrama that offers a distinctively refreshing spin on a complex story of lust, rivalry and liberation. A seemingly carefree woman is seen cycling through narrow lanes before reaching a strawberry farm where she takes on a job, living in a shabby caravan, starting to develop friendships with her co-workers and in particular one rugged farmhand, Kev. Although aloof and mysterious its not until a dazzling woman appears in the strawberry fields that we discover who she was running away from - her sister, Emily. Emily is eccentric to the point of dangerous and its not long before the two sisters form a battle of wills with Kev caught in the crossfire.

A woozy, summer of love film set among the itinerant fruit picking community of a Kent farm, Frances Lea's micro-budget story tells of two sisters, Gillian (Anna Madeley) and Emily (Christine Bottomley, from The Arbor), in a destructively suffocating relationship.They both seek refuge in the transitory world of strawberry pickers where a love rivalry brings out the worst in them. I liked this modest film, its unusual setting, its new-folk music (by Troubadour Rose) and its conscious echoes of A Streetcar Named Desire.
