Emily Barker - Anywhere Away (title song from the Jake Gavin film HECTOR)

Details

Description

‘Anywhere Away’ was written for Jake Gavin’s directorial debut, Hector. Peter Mullan stars in the title role as homeless Hector McAdam, making his annual journey from Glasgow to spend Christmas at a London shelter, his back story unfolding as his journey progresses. Given the bleak backdrop of homelessness in the UK, the film actually tells a rather uplifting story, highlighting the random acts of kindness from strangers that can bring hope at difficult times.

The song also connects with that feeling most of us have faced at one time or another: the feeling that we are being overwhelmed by circumstances out of our control, and the only place we want to be is any place but the one we’re in.

Jake Gavin shot this video and edited it together with scenes from the film...
