Random Acts

In case you missed our latest Random Act, winner of Edinburgh One to Watch 2020 @HanzMacDonald . A thought-provoking film focusing on climate change and the toll it takes on mental health. Featuring @BillieMarten made by @PostcardProds youtu.be/65yHkUxmJRo @OnestoWatch_TV

We're sad to hear of the passing of the great Bernard Cribbins. In 2018 he lent his voice to a magical Random Acts short: a deep-dive into woodland nostalgia, a pastoral disco made complete by Cribbin's melodic narration. Woodland by Josh Blaaberg youtube.com/watch?v=b1a-Iu…
