Just For The Record

Synopsis

In 2008 an independent production company set out to make the micro-budget feature film Just For The Record.

Armed with a stellar cast of top TV actors, the world’s most advanced digital camera and a quirky location to die for - what could possibly go wrong?

A lot, as it happens.

A year after the film has been abandoned, the cast and crew reunite for a series of interviews about the ill-fated production. It’s a constant round of accusations, recriminations and humorous anecdotes as everyone tries to answer the central burning question: Why did the film fail and whose fault was it?
