Edinburgh International Film Festival, the home premiere is always a special one especially when it’s at the Filmhouse. So much love in that building especially from my Mum. Thank you everyone for making it very special ❤️ I just wish @cj_mirra could have experienced that banging opening track in person!

@cphdox analogue 📸 are here and I’m obsessed! 😍

From premieres to parties to pitches, this year’s festival was so eventful and exciting! 🤩 I am honoured and humbled to have engaged with some many talented people and their ground-breaking work. Showing @allriversspill to the audiences for the first time was extremely gratifying 🦞 🌊🦀

Our next stop is The Italian National Premiere of Super Nature this Sunday at @pordenonedocsfest near Venice (not Venice Beach, not Little Venice). This is particularly bellísimo because one of our stories is set in Italy in @valledaosta where filmmaker Carlotta Beck Peccoz @carlottabeckpeccozfilm tells the story of her family connection to the Alpine Ibex, brilliantly filmed by her and Timothy Wood @thewoodbrothers_dops

Super Nature is a love letter to nature created on Super 8 by people connecting across the world.

Carlotta and Tim together with Toby the Dog @tobys.amazing.adventures took off to the mountains during covid. And some real magic happened…

More about that when Ed Sayers @edinstacam and Carlotta share the Q&A after the screening on Sunday.

Absolutely can’t wait for this one. The big downside is a cold hard feeling of Flygskam.

Know anyone there? Send them along!

Thank you @glasgowfilmfest and @glasgowfilmtheatre We had a blast. We’re all feeling sad about Glasgow Central station - which we know and love too - see last photo. 😢

Back tho to happy film festival times just before that happened….

It was wonderful to share the film with the large contingent of beautiful Scottish talent who worked on @supernaturefilm and with friends and family.

As @glasgowfilmfest draws to a close tomorrow we want to take a moment to give a shout out to all those who’ve made these a brilliant, eventful and celebratory couple of weeks… from opening the festival with the homecoming premiere of @kenmurestreet, to celebrating our 10th year with our friends & colleagues at @conicfilm, to a fireside ‘Made in Glasgow’ chat with Glasgow Film CEO @seonaidd. It’s not an easy gig producing indie films and we’re thankful to everyone who has supported us to keep going.

Thank you & high fives to team GFF 2026, to Paul, Debbie, Sam and all for hosting us! We 💜 Glasgow x

It's testimony to our amazing crew on A BEAR NAMED WOJTEK that we've arrived on the shortlist for the 97th Academy Awards. Everyone involved elevated the directors vision creating something greater than the sum of its parts.
