Nick Darke (1948-2005) was a prolific writer of passion and originality, both political and inspirational. This film is a celebration of Nick’s legacy, his enduringly relevant work about community and corruption, the lives of ordinary people and the natural world. It shows his growing influence. Filmed performances are integrated with archive footage and interviews with his collaborators, and those inspired by his work.
