Follow the Master To Raise Money
Matt Hulse, Lucy Brown and their dog Tippy.
The quirky film sees Matt Hulse, his girlfriend Lucy Brown and their rescue dog Tippy following the 100-mile South Downs Way in homage to the filmmaker’s grandfather who died last year. It was selected for Best of the Fest at the Edinburgh Film Festival 2009 and impressed audiences at Hollywood actress Tilda Swinton’s travelling film festival A Pilgrimage: Scottish Road Movie Film Festival last summer.
£1 from every DVD sale of the film will be donated to Dogs Trust, from where nine year old German Shepherd cross Tippy was rehomed from over 9 years ago.
Matt Hulse explains: “Since we rehomed Tippy from Dogs Trust West Calder she’s become a definite part of the family, so when we decided to go on the road trip and make the film there was no question of her joining us. She was a natural in front of the camera and ended up playing a starring role. We wanted to help fundraise for Dogs Trust as a thank you for bringing her into our lives.”
The film can be purchased from www.followthemaster.info. £1 from every sale will be donated to Dogs Trust.
