ScreenFish Radio

Michael Clowater is ready to tell his family story. Based on the true story of his grandfather, DRIVE BACK HOME tells the story of Weldon (Charlie Creed-Miles) as he and his family mourn the death of their father. Shortly after, Weldon receives a call from the Toronto police. They have arrested his older brother, Perley (Alan Cumming) for having sex with a man in a public park and Weldon is the only number that he gave them. At his mother’s insistence, Weldon begins the 1000 mile trek to Toronto in order to pick up his brother. But family reunions aren’t always easy and, with awkwardness in the air, the two men begin the difficult ride home together. In this 1on1, we speak to Clowater about moving forward when you could go back and looking for God.
