'Long Lost' explores the anxieties, the hope, the questions that arise within us all including, 'what is love? - as in, REAL love?' This film attempts to encourage others to also delve deep within. Watch Long Lost and share Tim's ordinary night out and the extraordinary (re) connection.
A regular Saturday night. Central London is buzzing with life, with good times. Tim is out with friends enjoying his night when all of a sudden, things change: he discovers that something is missing and that his life isn't actually as content as he would like to think. A (second) chance meeting with a person he bumps into that night, provokes Tim to delve deeper, to swim beneath the surface.
'Long Lost' showed how a creative and mutually respectful atmosphere on the set, and strong relationships between the film crew, can transform one’s initial vision and take it to a superior level, opening up the mystical charm of filmmaking.
'Long Lost' has been a project that has awakened a peaceful courage within me. The Director’s faith and vision has inspired me to build on that connection I hold inside me and to not give up so easily- especially when troubles prevail.
It is a very subtle production. This film will touch your inner self and will move you away from your material understanding. I am proud to have worked with such an inspiring team, this for me is beyond any material satisfaction, just as the movie itself is.
'Long Lost' has been great fun to work on; taking me from the busy nightlife of central London to the serene nature of the Avebury world heritage site. This project has invited me as an actor to put the core of my heart into my work All credit really goes to the Director and "visionaire" of this project Shakti Avesha, who set up a trusting, respectful and professional environment in which to work in, minus the slipping in sheep maneoure around Avebury of course. I would like to give a special thank you the London Film Academy for their support and to Abigail also, for being such a talent.
'Long Lost' showed me the true value of collaboration and team spirit. When the days got long, the crew got stronger. The spiritual message of the film has inspired me in my own work and its message touches something in all of us - the willing to connect.
I felt really fortunate to work with real pro actors like John and Abs!
