Follow The Master will be screening at Cucalorus Film Festival in Wilmington, North Carolina on Thursday November 12th 1630h at Jengo’s Playhouse. This marks the film’s escape from the UK out into The World At Large.
The festival writes that the feature ‘establishes Hulse as a Scottish iconoclast’ which amuses us greatly.
Follow The Master will be screening for three days at Filmhouse Edinburgh on the following dates:
Monday 26th October (2045h)
Tuesday 27th October (1500h, 1815h)
Thursday 29th October (1500h, 1815h)
I’ll be there in person for a Q&A / grilling on Tuesday 27th at 1815h, as part of the Filmhouse’s ‘Made in Edinburgh’ season. I’ll make sure to have a bunch of the very very special limited edition DVD’s with me – or you can buy one here.

So what’s next for Follow The Master?
The film has been invited to screen as a part of A Pilgrimage.
‘We will pull the Screen Machine mobile cinema on our journey from Kinlochleven to Nairn, over 5 days. Why? To make a pilgrimage for cinema. To bear witness to its wonders. To celebrate walking & film. In tribute to the road movie genre. In tribute to the brilliance of the Scottish land. To show the world that film deserves such an effort.’
More info about Pilgrimage here.
Follow The Master has also been invited to screen at the inaugural Abandon Normal Devices Festival which will run from 23rd-27th September in Liverpool.
They have described the film as ‘a highly distinctive take on death & rambling’.
