6XT The Movie

Synopsis

Habitat loss, climate change, poaching, trafficking and trading of animal parts and live animals are all contributing to a global 'sixth extinction event.'
This documentary follows the dramatic, dangerous and immensely challenging journey of the 6XT team as they travel the world to unravel the complexities leading to the rapid decline of animal populations and decimation of ecosystems.
The 6XT team have set themselves a mammoth task of changing attitudes towards animal conservation globally by raising the curtain on the dramatic, controversial and as yet often misunderstood factors that are bringing so many species to the brink of extinction.
This is not a work of fiction; Their journey is fraught with real danger and jeopardy, as they investigate and infiltrate global criminal gangs, trafficking and poaching networks, corporate practices and consumer demands.
Following several years of research, production is now poised to begin as the investigations swing into action with cameras capturing every dramatic moment of this astonishing journey.

Two hands hold a thread of wool during the process of weaving tartan The Weavers

Director: Callum McCulloch-Nowlan

Year: 2026

Rob Beaton has been weaving tartan and tweed in the Scottish Borders since he was 14. Now 84, he is Scotland's oldest and longest-serving mill worker, operating 100-year-old traditional shuttle looms. With no apprentice to carry on his craft, the mill where he has worked for over four decades may soon be forced to close. But elsewhere in Scotland, a different story is unfolding. At another mill in Highland Perthshire, a young apprentice is learning the trade, and the ancient rhythms of the looms are being passed to a new generation. Once, Scotland's textile industry employed nearly 75% of the population. Today, that figure stands at just 0.2%. Against the backdrop of that decline, the stories of these two mills paint a portrait of an industry at a crossroads. Through his film, Callum McCulloch-Nowlan celebrates the workers, machines, and spaces of Scotland's weaving tradition, while exploring the urgency of preserving a disappearing craft.
