A hand-drawn animation by Catrìona Black about the Iolaire disaster, with first-hand accounts from survivors and witnesses and a haunting musical score by fiddler Sarah-Jane Summers.
The film explores the trauma felt by the Lewis community which struggles to connect to the men it lost after generations of silence, just as Iain Crichton Smith’s poem, performed by Patsi Mackenzie, describes his struggle to haul the memory of a past love from the ocean floor of his subconscious.
This powerful short film layers charcoal-style drawings with textures photographed in the areas affected, and poignant forms filled in by grieving relatives.
