I Only Do Real Things
Director: James Stephen Wright, George Finlay Ramsay
Year: 2020
Following the threefold journey of a rock through distinct layers of reality. June’s the best month, June’s the brightest month isn’t it? June’s the best month, June’s the brightest month isn’t it? June’s the best month, June’s the brightest month isn’t it? With narration from the rock in its mother tongue (usefully subtitled), it plays in the parallel mirror-image universe as hypothesised by a prophetic laminitic Shetland Pony based in Perthshire. Like a stoney Virgil, the rock guides us through its attempts to do only the realest of things.
