Cairn
A Music Documentary showcasing new music interweaved with Scottish archival recordings reminiscing about a time and a place from the long past yet underlining a connection that cannot be erased through the passage of time to our everyday.
Synopsis:
'Cairn' is a unique collaboration of sight, sound and the past, being, reminiscences of Scotland. It is a living memory. It is a collection of new music set to archival recordings of those who once lived in the Scottish Highlands and Islands discussing moments of childhood, folklore and people. It is a celebration of the more intricate moments of Scottish and Gaelic culture and a thank you to all it has given so far. We are in the living rooms, we are in the kitchens and around the firesides drinking tea with these people from across time and getting to know them. My music is the radio playing in the corner and the emotions echoing through our minds. They shall be our companions, our grandparents and our teachers. They had lived a whole life, let us offer them a chance for resurrection, let them tell you a story.
A collaboration with Musician / Composer Blair Coron.
Filmed and edited by me.
