’INFECTIOUS NIHILISM AND SMALL METALLIC PIECES OF HOPE’ by JAMES PRICE -
“Graeme Armstrong genuinely is one of the most important voices to come out of Scotland ever, not just in recent years. He is one of the most intelligent, generous and thoughtful people I have ever worked with and I wanted to make sure he was on set for the shoot so I cast him in it. I originally was going to act in it with him but we only had two days to shoot it so I pulled out last minute. Beyond his writing, his acting was fantastic and really authentic. I love working with non-actors and Graeme did not disappoint, it was strange for both of us being back in a fabricated version of an environment we used to know so well. His instincts from a filmmaking standpoint were also really stellar, every idea he had during the shoot turned out to be the best parts of the short film.“
