Weekend Warrior

Weekend Warrior

Conxita Fornieles
Weekend Warrior explores the passion of a man who transforms from an average council employee to the Earl of Galloway, a 12th century warrior. The protagonist moves from taking dull chores to leading his troops to the battle, guide them and keep all his men alive. This is a film about time travelling and question what is normality, framed in a society where oddity is often penalised. As we live turning our back on fantasy, embracing rational existence, this is a film about reconnection with the warrior and the dreamer we all have inside.
