loved the story of your life since perma- heels. touches the soul. will try and find the way to subscibing soon. so sad about documentary life shortage. hope your daughter is well and thriving. john sweeney. Niagara.
I don't think it's releasable sadly - I was very green back then and had no idea about boring grown up things like copyright (it's full of commercial music & photos I could never afford to clear). But maybe I'll try and clip up some of it at some point & share (if I can find a DV player to digitise the tapes!).I also worked with a fantastic poet - he was the resident poet for the London Transport Museum who have a massive depot in Acton. He wrote & recorded some new poems for the film - would be great to share some of that work. I'll have to look him up to ask if he's happy for me to do that - hopefully he'll still remember me 2 decades later!!
Ah thanks Carol! Docs on Screens is one of the og blogs I've been reading for yonks. Looking forward to getting stuck in here - as always, I've got more ideas than I have time ha ha! But am gonna just give myself grace to play a bit and go with the flow x
