Director's Note

This is an episode of the award-winning online documentary series THE PERENNIAL PLATE.

One of the most ambitious PERENNIAL PLATE episodes to date, “Lightfoot” contains over three hours of interview footage alone. It was also filmed with a 120/1 shooting ratio, which means that every two hours of film, only one minute made the final cut.
