…The director thought that my role was to provide funds, and proceeded to hire cast and crew and source locations (without a script). He then got outraged that I would ask questions about the crewing (39 cast and crew? Who’s paying for that).

LONDON
I’ve made it to London.
Rural Victoria
On my way to London, I spent a week in Victoria. I went out to Rural Victoria to visit a friend. On the way home, I shot and recorded this video.

Please to enjoy
