Ten Glorious Seconds – Watch online now

Posted in News on February 25th, 2011 by admin – 1 Comment

A short film that I recorded location sound for Ten Glorious Seconds has made it to the big screen. You can watch it on the website www.tengloriousseconds.com

Ten Glorious Seconds features Emmy-Award winning actor David Suchet (Hercule Poirot in the BAFTA-winning TV series Agatha Christie’s Poirot), together with veteran British actors Paul Collard and Gabrielle Hamilton.

The film is a short drama about Albert. Living in his care room, he’s in the late stages of Alzheimer’s, and his use of language has been lost. His wife Josie is aware that time is running out for them and is desperate to connect again.

Albert doesn’t know her anymore. Yet he can still receive and return emotional signals. And although what Josie does and says seems not to have an obvious impact; her presence and support triggers a blazing search in Albert’s memory for a connection.

Ten Glorious Seconds is directed by Simon Pitts and written by Carol Younghusband.
