The Possibilities Are Endless tells the incredible story of Edwyn Collins, a songwriter who suffered a stroke, an explosion in the brain so severe that it effectively deleted the contents of his mind.

The film is narrated by Edwyn, trapped inside his devastated mind and his wife Grace, the woman who pulled him back to life.

Synopsis

The spoken text of Père Lachaise is a poem about scattering ashes, illicitly, in the famous Paris cemetery.

But there is humour in the text, and the brilliant colours of the flames, and the fairground music, suggest life and energy.

Synopsis

When Marvin Hamlisch passed away in August 2012 the worlds of music, theatre and cinema lost a talent the likes of which we may never see again. Seemingly destined for greatness, Hamlisch was accepted into New York’s Juilliard School as a 6-year-old musical prodigy and rapidly developed into a phenomenon. With instantly classic hits ‘The Way We Were’ and ‘Nobody Does It Better’ and scores for Hollywood films such as The Swimmer, The Sting and Sophie’s Choice and the Broadway juggernaut A Chorus Line; Hamlisch became the go-to composer for film and Broadway producers and a prominent presence on the international Concert Hall circuit. His streak was staggering, vast, unprecedented and glorious, by the age of 31 Hamlisch had won 4 Grammys, an Emmy, 3 Oscars, a Tony and a Pulitzer prize: success that burned so bright, it proved impossible to match. With exclusive access to Hamlisch’s rich personal archive and interviews with his A-list collaborators and friends, Dori Berinstein’s film is a deeply personal portrait of an iconic artistic genius.
