Here’s a film I’ve been keeping an eye out for for a while, and it was finally uploaded to YouTube last week by David Harper, for which I’m very grateful.
This is, I believe, the film shown in a loop at St. Anne’s Church in Caasetown early in the year, and I’m afraid I don’t have much information on it’s composition, or who worked on it.
I have a feeling that social wonder Steve Lightfoot may know a fair bit – if you’re passing, please share the knowledge old chap.
If any of the authors or those involved are passing, please do comment with details so I can tell the full story and give everyone the credit they deserve for a wonderful, warm and beautiful film that’s very well made indeed.
My thanks t0 the irrepressible Wendy Jones for drawing this to my attention via her excellent and respectful Burntwood Chase Heritage Group on Facebook.
If you have anything to add, please do: either on this post, or mail me… BrownhillsBob at Googlemail dot com.
