Synopsis


A young man who has spent almost half of his life in various penal institutions reflects on life in the prison and on the outside. In an articulate interview, he speaks with clarity, irony, and sometimes humour about his criminal career, which is illustrated by scenes from his memories and impressions.

Peter Lord


Peter Lord is co-owner and Creative Director of Aardman, which he co-founded with his long-time collaborator David Sproxton in 1972. As a director, Lord has been honoured with two Academy Award nominations for Best Animated Short, the first in 1992 for Adam, and for Wat’s Pig in 1996, and Best Animated Feature for Pirates! In an Adventure with Scientists in 2013. He has also earned BAFTA nominations for Adam, The Amazing Adventures of Morph, War Story and Chicken Run and, as a producer for Wallace and Gromit: The Curse of the Were-Rabbit. Lord first met Sproxton in the early 1970s at school, where they started experimenting with animation techniques on their kitchen table. They tried a range of methods before settling on plasticine/clay model animation. In 1976 they built Aardman into one of the world’s leading model animation studios, celebrating its 40th anniversary in 2016.
