Dear Peter

Dear Peter

Dir. Scott Willis [2016]

After discovering a large collection of handwritten postcards in a secondhand shop, filmmaker Scott Willis begins a journey to track down their owner. The messages on the postcards create a picture of unknown man called Peter.

But with the collection spanning over seventy years, a reunion seems unlikely. Who was Peter? How did his life end? And what happens to us when our time is up?

Dear Peter directed by Scott Willis. Music composed by Josh Sabin and Sound Design by Keith Duncan.
