Kenneth McKay, a recent widower and enthusiastic tour guide at a dusty visitor centre in the small Scottish town of Arberloch, is dedicated to his alleged ancestor and notable Enlightenment figure Sir Douglas Weatherford. When Arberloch becomes a shooting location for a successful fantasy TV show and Sir Douglas’ local renown is threatened by the pop culture phenomenon, Kenneth’s world gets turned upside down and he takes it upon himself to preserve his legacy at any cost.

An offbeat, darkly funny character study about a man struggling to find his place in the contemporary world; exploring themes of identity and loss through a tender, eccentric, and quintessentially British lens. Directed by Seán Dunn, anchored by a nuanced, standout performance by Scottish screen legend and BAFTA nominee Peter Mullan.
