How it was made

The last cut-make-and-trim shop on the road

A short, made in eleven days, entirely self-funded. We made it because we walked past the window for two years and finally knocked on the door.

It is the film that got us the commission for The Back Room, which is a reasonable argument for making things nobody asked for.
