Capel Green has Gone

 
See here for essential background: https://hpanwo-tv.blogspot.com/2025/07/capel-green-premiere.html.
I'm very sad to report that it looks like the Capel Green project has failed. The documentary has had a very limited release in a handful of cinemas in England and Australia, but since then distribution has floundered. For a few months now there has been a lot of conflict between different members of the production team. I cannot reveal everything right now; hopefully there will be a full explanation soon. To be honest I have found the issue difficult to follow and do not understand everything that's happened. Now Tino, the assistant director, has made a public statement along with the illustration above: "With all the best intentions and efforts of many of the crew of Capel Green we have not been able to convince the film's director Dion Johnson to release the film to the world. The ball is very much in Dion's court now, but as it stands sadly right now it is RIP." I don't know what's going to happen now. The best we can hope for is that the film will simply be uploaded to YouTube so that people can at least watch it. I hope it will be the long cut, not just because I'm in it! The extended version contains all the necessary information and, despite its duration, not a single frame is wasted. However, any edit of the film will do. I feel privileged and happy that I went to the premiere. I do hope that, despite everything, something good can come out of the nine years of effort and hope that went into making Capel Green.
