Filmmaker Vincent Hunter was born in Scotland in the late sixties and studied English and Philosophy at Glasgow University before embarking on a career in film. His work is highly original and tends to defy categorisation. Sharing Samuel Beckett’s deeply pessimistic world view, Hunter’s work tends to explore the more difficult moral questions of contemporary life, and the themes he has already covered include death, denial, and isolation. Having spent his formative years in a seminary, Hunter describes his religious experience as being ‘etched into his mental DNA’ and his fascination with death is predicated on the belief that it is ultimately what we are all preparing for throughout our lives. While admiring the work of Patrick Keillor, Bresson and EM Cioran, Hunter believes that influences are an adornment of youth, and it’s the preparation for eternity which our own voice enables us to find.
