Search Film Duncan Marquiss, 2015

Search Film follows the artist s father, the biologist Dr. Mick Marquiss as he tracks goshawks, an elusive bird of prey, in rural north east Scotland. The film becomes a search in itself, expanding into a broader conversation on the nature of searching across a variety of contexts, comparing innate foraging behaviour with clothes shopping and internet browsing. Camera, sound and edit by Duncan Marquiss. Sound mixed by Derek O Neill. Supported by Creative Scotland and The Elephant Trust.
