Beyond the weird is an affectionate human interest film based on the life of arch druid Brian Conquer and how we can often perceive things as weird or strange simply because we don’t understand them. This film will deal with the stereotypes society labels people like Brian with and get beyond the weird to show ordinary people living extraordinary lives.
The film follows Brian a Glastonbury resident in his daily life and documents the juxtaposition of his two lives that of a druid, and that of a husband and pensioner. We will see him shopping, drinking in the pub talking with friends about his beliefs, in his workshop fashioning esoteric tools and see him performing druidic rituals at the winter solstice.
The demographic for this film are 25-55 year olds who watch programs like Body shock, Louis Theroux and other observational documentaries. It targets channels like BBC2, Channel 4, Sky 3 and Discovery. It would also have appeal as an educational program on the subjects of psychology, Sociology and Religion. It would also have a broad appeal to the southwest, people who live in and around the Glastonbury area.
