After racking up an impressive track record as a maker of festival-favorite shorts, British director Gaby Dellal took to the seas, shooting On a Clear Day in 35mm with Arri cameras on Fuji film with her longtime collaborator, D.P. David Johnson. On a Clear Day is the tale of a laid-off Glasgow shipbuilder (Peter Mullan) who fills his days ironing out his contentious relationship with his adult son (Jamie Sives) and training for a swim across the English Channel. The film is rife with a particularly black and bitter Scottish humor — not unexpected, given that Dellal's feature debut put her through some considerable creative ordeals.
