The Human Swan Flies into Frome: Film Screening & Q&A with Sacha Dench

Renowned adventurer and conservationist Sacha Dench—known worldwide as “The Human Swan”—is coming to the Merlin Theatre, Frome on the 2nd of October, for an evening of film, stories, and inspiration.

The event features a screening of Flight of the Swans, her award-winning documentary following a 7,000km paramotor journey from Arctic Russia to the UK, retracing the migration of the endangered Bewick’s swan. The film captures breathtaking aerial footage and moving encounters with communities and scientists along the way.

Hot on the heels of her latest achievement—becoming the first woman to kayak solo across the Irish Sea as part of her UNSTOPPABLE – Sea to Summit expedition—Sacha will join audiences live on stage for a Q&A. She’ll share new stories from her record-breaking crossing, insights from her expedition across Europe, and her personal journey of resilience since surviving a life-changing accident in 2021.

  • Date & Venue: Thursday 2nd October, Merlin Theatre, Frome
  • Event: Flight of the Swans screening + live Q&A with Sacha Dench
  • In support of: Conservation Without Borders and Sustainable Frome
