All Embracing short film directed by Andrew Love


This is a short film of the title story from my collection. We filmed it with 20 willing volunteers at Liverpool St Station a few years back. This was a very different experience to the story, as everyone seemed to get hooked on cuddling after the first few nervous sessions. By the end of the day the grinning cuddlers wouldn't go home, and were sad when they grabbed their goodbye hugs. Andy did a great job editing the footage into a moving film, incorporating the embrace sculpture at St Pancras. It did well at festivals and made it into the top 20 TCM shorts.
