DRONES or HELICOPTERS; TRUTH or LIES?
Local DoP, and sometime director, editor, journalist, writer, producer, social worker, teacher, and general ageing hippie, David Baillie, comes clean on a career of lies, subterfuge, and adventure.
With clips from wars, famines, corporates, dramas and cock ups, he’ll aim to show another generation how to see the world, pay the mortgage and have fun in film.
