With Seasalter Road we wanted to pay homage to that mournful and inevitable right of passage that awaits us all - the clearing of the family home after the death of a parent. I hope you will enjoy our film that was made with a small but passionate & highly skilled team on a tiny budget. Like the characters it depicts, we hope audiences will find beauty in its sorrow and hope in its resolution.
