Morfydd Clark is set to headline a biopic, titled “Making Noise,” about Evelyn Glennie, a deaf woman who became the world’s premier solo percussionist.
Multi-Grammy winner Glennie, who hails from Scotland, experienced profound hearing loss as a child. But instead of giving up on her dream of making music, she instead went on to become a global star, performing with artists including Bjork, Underworld and Mark Knopfler.
She has also released more than 40 albums and performed over 2,500 concerts worldwide. Embankment is launching global pre-sales on the project at the Toronto Film Festival.
