Princess for a Day
My brother, Tom Fergus Arnott (Director) wanted to adapt a scene from Jack Dickson’s play “Princess for a Day” after having watched it being performed in Oran Mor. This was my first project immediately following my graduation from college. It was awarded several accolades across the globe, including the finalist for “Best Short Film” at The Grand Indiewise Convention in Miami Florida. (Editor.)
