The Hum (1997)

Duration: 52 minutes

Faction Films / Splash Productions for Westcountry TV / HTV

 A television documentary investigating the enigmatic humming sound that have reportedly been heard by residents in the south west of England, particularly those in Bristol and western Cornwall. The cause of the noise remains a mystery and The Hum explores some of the possibilities, from gas and water utilities to military operations and telecommunications. The documentary also raises the question of how the human senses might be affected by the growing range of technologies that now surround us.
