Six-year film project opens Lowestoft's Sunrise Film Festival

A film six years in the making has helped open Lowestoft's Sunrise Film Festival, created almost entirely by one filmmaker, who is orginally from Mutford.

Matt Simpson was the sole actor, editor and producer on the project, taking on multiple roles throughout its six-year production.

His film was screened at the Marina Theatre on Thursday night as the Sunrise Film Festival got underway.

The screening marks the latest stage in a project that Simpson began six years ago and worked on through to completion.

The film is part of this year's Sunrise Film Festival programme, which is showcasing independent cinema and emerging filmmakers in Lowestoft.

Sunday is the festival's final day, more details are the events pages of our app and website.
