Nominated for the Michael Powell Award (EIFF 2013) and a Tiger Award (IFFR 2013), Dummy Jim weaves fiction, documentary, animation, and archive to explore the eccentric adventures of the profoundly deaf Scottish long-distance cyclist James Duthie, hailing from the close-knit Aberdeenshire fishing community of Cairnbulg and Inverallochy. In 1951, he set out on a lone cycling tour to Morocco. After three months of pedalling, he reached the Arctic Circle. Twelve years in the making, Hulse crafts a multi-layered memorial to a quietly determined maverick and the community that shaped him, with present-day village inhabitants emerging as creative participants. Deaf actor Samuel Dore leads.

UCCA 【Art Cinema】 is honoured to invite Director Matt Hulse to introduce his film on March 7^th.
