Ken Wardrop
Director’s Statement
I remember a masterclass that I had taken in
film school where a documentarian sug-
gested that some of the best stories are to be
found in your back garden. I was lucky
enough to find this particular story in my
brother’s back field. Unfortunately, the subject of the film met
with a sad ending—that’s another story for investigation.
