My dad died when I was seven from a cancer largely induced by his addiction to alcohol - fifteen years on I was given a stack of poems that he had written.
These poems were a release for his torment and, being the only tangible items I have of his, allowed me to dig deeper into his addiction as a way to better understand the illness that consumed him.
The film came about as a result of unresolved questions I had about my dad. My dad was a mystery to me really.
