'.....invites us to experience a level of connection and intimacy between two people.' - Sam Dunn (Head of BFI Video Publishing)
An instructional film by Bruce Lacey.
Bruce Lacey: 'People used to come and make documentaries about me, but they weren't interested in the day-to-day family life that I found extremely interesting and funny. So I decided to make that film myself. All the members of the family wrote down all the different day-to-day things that they wanted to be seen doing.'

A moody, pastoral sci-fi tale about Stella Superstar and her travels across the universe. Vaseline around the camera lens and other early cinema techniques turn it into something truly beautiful.
