Story
About The Project
Most of the film has already been shot. The film was an extension of a short film that was produced for and theatrically debuted in 2013 at the Fragile Festival in Tallinn Estonia.
Since the initial production, Dan has returned to Scotland three times to work with Keith on the project. This culminated in 15 days of shooting in December 2014 documenting Keith's large mural project at the Harbour Arts Centre in western Scotland. There is one more set of shots to be gathered in September of 2015 when the Mural is moved across the water to Scotland's Arran Island for its first public viewing since being publicly created in late 2014-early 2015. The mural is based on a view of Arran Island's famous Glen Rosa landscape and will be publicly installed at the Arran Island Distillery Art Gallery for three months.
