HOME, 2 Tony Wilson Place, Manchester, Greater Manchester, M15 4FN
A foray into documentary for this week’s Filmed Up short, Blackthorn‘s arresting cinematography and composition make for memorable scenes that stay with you for a long time.
“An enthralling and hypnotic documentary which is the perfect partnership of visuals and voiceover. What could have been a very dry short film is an honest and captivating treatise on masculinity, heritage, and nature.” – Ryan Lee Gregory, Filmed Up Panel Member
Synopsis
Sam Robinson plies the thousand-year-old craft of dry stone walling in Cumbria, working in all weathers to make and maintain the lie of the land. His philosophy is one of protest, pride and authenticity – the counter-vision to a Britain bound in consumerism, the people removed from the work that once grounded their communities.
For Sam, resistance is the honesty of work and words.
