'A Dairy Story' Selected for Central Scotland Documentary Festival

Film will have its UK premiere in Stirling in early November

‘A Dairy Story’ has been selected for Central Scotland Documentary Festival, where it will have its UK premiere on the evening of Saturday 1st November.

The Central Scotland Documentary Festival is Scotland’s largest creative documentary and non-fiction filmmaking event. Launched in 2017 the festival is curated and presented by Macrobert Arts Centre in Stirling, a city with a strong history of and association with documentary.

Grahame Reid of Central Scotland Documentary Festival said:

“Our festival aims to showcase a wide range of stories that spark discussion, deepen understanding, and connect audiences with the world around them. We are delighted to present the UK Premiere of A Dairy Story in competition this year, alongside a wealth of thought-provoking films that reflect the diversity, creativity and commitment of documentary makers in Scotland and beyond.”

A Dairy Story, a feature length documentary, follows David and Wilma Finlay of Rainton Farm in Galloway as they pioneered what became Europe’s first commercially viable cow-with-calf dairy system. Over twenty years, they transformed their 340-hectare farm from conventional dairy to an innovative system that keeps calves with their mothers rather than separating them shortly after birth.
