ISOLATION + Live Soundtrack

A Picturehouse DOCS presentation

In association with Branchage Film Festival 

Directors: Luke Seomore, Joseph Bull. UK 2009. 76 mins.

A quarter of British ex-soldiers sleep rough after they leave the forces. This is an impressionistic portrait of the emotional and physical aftermath of war, seen through the eyes of Stuart Griffiths, an ex-soldier made homeless after returning to civvy street, now a family man and renowned professional photographer.

ISOLATION’s elegant crafting gives a poetic backdrop to the quiet dignity and forbearance of men whose lives are in some ways wrecked, but who bravely take what the world deals them. The soldiers’ words are complemented by exquisite and evocative landscape imagery, which glosses the human stories with an atmospheric, scarred beauty.

Director Luke Seomore will perform the film's score live with musicians Michael Garrad and David Stephens.

“One of the best documentaries I have seen in a long while.” – Little White Lies
