Projektinfo

Time to spend developing and editing Duncan’s first feature documentary film. The film is a personal film that looks at Duncan’s inabilities in being able to show emotion to those closest to him (see treatment). The film is currently supported by the BFI through their RAW Award and the Scottish Documentary Institute. (funding pending from Creative Scotland) Time would also be used to create or work on another short personal film, likely surrounding similar themes.
