Ballad of the Outer Life
2020
Screenplay
“ Look at the facts. Love is Wise. Hatred is foolish.”
– Bertrand Russell –
My film about leaving home and the characters I encountered in the wide world. This Coming-of-Age story comes out of their commitment, their passions, their tragedy. We live in chaos, yet always seek order and stability. And once in a while, collective energy harnessed amongst mayhem, results in triumph.”
In memory of my friend David Clunas, Young Scottish Chef of the Year 1988. RIP
