In the short science fiction film by David Lea a man and his dog make their routine walk to the isolated clifftops of Cornwall... but this time they realize they're not so isolated after all.
Cast: Brian Lea (pipe smoking man), Janis Lea (his wife), Mark Miles Thomas (Radio broadcaster), featuring Sylvia the cat and Bosun the dog.
On Sunday is a short film half a decade in the making - returning to Cornwall to shoot on location in his home town and painstakingly post produced in the weekends and evenings over the next 5 years, it is award-winning director David Lea's paean to the science fiction films of his childhood. In many ways this film is a thank you to his Dad, who actually features in the film. Way back in 1984 he hand-built a cabin bed for his bedroom and underneath this, made from wood, flashing lights and copper piping he'd constructed a spaceship cockpit. David was 6 years old and via fuzzy VHS's already indoctrinated in the ways of the force, last star fighters and Xenomorphs - his dad used to censor the scary bits by recording Sunday Cricket over them. The finished cabin bed was a fledgling geek's dream come true. 31 years later David thought it was past time to repay the favor and build his Dad his very own spaceship.
