King for a Day
King for a Day is a poetic archive-led documentary immersing us in the personal story of the people of Padstow in Cornwall, their ancient ritual and the challenges they face in a rapidly changing world. A cinematic journey interweaving footage spanning 100 years. Filmed over nine years in the shadow of Brexit, the documentary reveals the fragility of a community under duress. Will this be the last generation to tease the ‘Old Oss’ from his stable to welcome the Summer?
