GALORE! (2021)

“Loved Galore!!! Superb! I love how you bring in a wee bit of everything … history, island life… Johnnie the cat… the sound effects were spot on.” (Debbie Cassels, artist)

How many years does it take to feel as though you really belong? For Francine, living on the Isle of Donan, nothing will ever be the same now that her reason for being there is gone. But Francine is a survivor. Outwardly conventional she may be, but like a true Frenchwoman, she’s up for a little rebellion when the opportunity arises.

Galore! was conceived and produced during lockdown, and inspired by the beautiful Isle of Arran which lies off the west coast of Scotland. At the time, I could see the island from the top of the hill near my house, but for many months was not able to visit it.
