One man’s poignant search for community via radio waves, freely available on aeon.co
A unique and deeply moving piece of biographical filmmaking, the short documentary Echo provides a window into the life of an older man named Allister Hadden living in Northern Ireland. The film drifts between past and present, with a rich, textured, shot-on-film aesthetic tethering together Hadden’s archival recordings and newly shot footage from the Belfast-based filmmaker Ross McClean.
