ISOLATION tours the UK - not to be missed

There's now a chance for people around the country to see arguably the most important and moving UK documentary of the last year, ISOLATION, with a live soundtrack accompaniment, as it's set to tour Picturehouse cinemas around the country.

Atmospheric and impressionistic, this remarkable film follows photographer and ex-paratrooper Stuart Griffiths as he travels across the country documenting the physical and emotional scars of life after the army, uncovering the personal and controversial stories of young war veterans; a quarter of whom end up sleeping rough after returning from duty.  This beautifully shot and incredibly moving film very carefully highlights an often all too invisible group. 

To accompany the film, co-director Luke Seomore will be performing a live interpretation of his original score alongside musicians Michael Garrad and David Stephens.

The film and Seomore's pitch-perfect live accompaniment come together to make a profoundly moving and not-to-be-missed event.

The tour (14th July to 1st August) will take film and live soundtrack to London, Brighton, Cambridge, Liverpool, Oxford and York.
