It wasn’t until I’d invited documentary director Jerry Rothwell to discuss his latest feature Town of Runners that I realised I’d been a fan of his work for many years, through films such as Deep Water and Heavy Load. Jerry and I discuss unconventional narrators and the tricky art of conducting interviews using double translation.

There’s never a shortage of ideas[…] It’s about that process of hanging on to them for a year & still sticking with them to make them a reality, that’s the hard part.
