Tha Alasdair Grey fìor ainmeil na neach-ealain an Alba, cliù mhòr
na sgrìobhadair, neach-ealain lèirsinneach, drungaire ainmeil, duilich còmhradh a dhèanamh ris agus a’ togail dust le na sgrìobhas e. Tha am film seo gu math pearsanta a chaidh a chlàradh thar 15 bliadhna. Thug e cead airson clàradh obair-ealain a tha a-nise mar dualchas beò na h-Alba. Tha am film aithriseach seo a’ dol air cùl an aghaidh-choimheach gu inntinn geur ’s toinisgeil, riaslach agus bheireadh

e lachan-gàire air daoine. Cha lorgar nas fheàrr na Alasdair airson tuigse air miann neo-eisimeileachd dha Alba.

Alasdair Gray is one of the giants of Scottish Arts, gaining a reputation
as a great writer, artist, notorious drunkard, irascible interviewee and controversial essayist. In this intimate portrait, filmed over the course of 15 years, he has allowed himself to be

filmed creating work that has become part of the living heritage of Scotland. This feature length documentary gets behind the hype, revealing a character who is by turns incisive, chaotic and laugh out loud funny. There is no

one better that Alasdair if you want to understand the cultural drive for independence.
