The Fall of Sir Douglas Weatherford (15)

Peter Mullan stars in Sean Dunn’s blackly comic tale of tour guide Kenneth, who dresses as his ancestor, the famous philosopher and inventor Sir Douglas Weatherford, and takes pride in his history.

Things change when the village where he works becomes the location for a hit fantasy show, leading his beloved visitor centre to also undergo a fantastical transformation. As fans flock to visit, Kenneth’s sanity starts to slip and he begins to become obsessed with the show’s good-looking star Oscar (Jakob Oftebro). Dunn’s feature debut offers a keen exploration of the grey area where history and fantasy meet.
