Murder mystery hits the big screen for village near Leamington

AN MP’s wife is murdered and an investigation ensues in a rural ‘whodunnit’ produced by Eathorpe people and filmed in the village.

Written and directed by James French, who organises events at the village hall, The Green Belt, which was premiered at the hall just before Christmas.

The story focuses on an investigation into the murder of an MP’s wife - just one of the 72 recent murders in a village made up of 45 houses and ten flats.
