Director Biography - Robert David Duncan

My core training in acting is from the Stella Adler Studio in New York. I love acting and filmmaking and Vancouver where I now live is a beautiful place to make films. I am interested in the dramas, delights, passions and heartbreaks that take place in everyday interactions (or lack thereof) between ordinary people. Most of my films have dealt with human-scale issues such as tough choices, love, dreams, hope and finding meaning and fun in life. I love an underdog story! My motto is don't let anything get in the way of telling a story that might uplift someone - film it with your smartphone if that's what you have, but get it done and share it with the world.

Director Statement

I found some forgotten video footage that I shot while sailing across the Atlantic on a tall sailing ship. My intention was to see if I could use this "found footage" of mine to produce some micro short films. This is the first film experiment with this footage. The film explores the role of safety versus adventure in the face of life's uncertainties.
