Official Trailer for 'D is for Distance' Documentary Film About Epilepsy

"Time future contained in time past. The same old story..." BFI has revealed the main official trailer for an acclaimed indie documentary film titled D is for Distance, made by two filmmakers telling their own story as parents of a boy with epilepsy. Made in the UK, this experimental doc film is opening in UK cinemas starting in April. It premiered at the 2025 Rotterdam Film Festival and played at Thessaloniki, London, and Vienna Film Festivals as well. A meditation on cinema, the NHS and family relationships, D is for Distance tells the story of the filmmakers' son Louis, and his debilitating experiences living with epilepsy, through an extraordinary archive of personal footage. Narrated by English actress Jodhi May. Louis, who is now 22, is also an emerging artist working in London. The experiences of his condition have vividly influenced his paintings, drawings and etchings, exhibited during last year's London Film Festival and seen throughout the film as well. D is for Distance is also a celebration of music, including songs from Holger Czukay, The Everly Brothers, Ennio Morricone, King Krule, and others. Certainly seems like a unique cinematic creation. // Continue Reading ›
