We are made of meat & music, born with sawdust on our feet. Glued to our mothers for a while, we fall into the angles of our father's eyes and they look everywhere but where we are. Glued to our mothers for a while, we look into our mother's eyes and out the other side. Breezes are cold & no one told us that we are made of meat and music. A chill wind for dogs of a strange town; a chill wind for Hollywood Gargoyles. Fairy Tale, Fable & poem-movie about the adventures of a Gargoyle Poet who, frozen in the still time of stone, begins to stir - slowly - after centuries. Gathered in an old house in Vancouver are his true friends who dream of Gargoyles, of a world filled with people made of stone. He follows a thread of yarn - and it leads to a career in Hollywood. At the center of all this is Granny Knitwit, who spins natural yarns woven in Newfoundland & dyed with lichen from Labrador. All threads are gathered, all stone footsteps lead us to Hollywood...and you're invited along for the journey. A Gull Pond Book Praise for William Gough: Gough's writing is...poignant, spare, with the strength and subtlety of a fine woodcut..." E. Annie Proulx A wise, compassionate storyteller." Atom Egoyan.
