Behind the True Story takes you behind the scenes of Vince Dixon's 'Sometimes I Imagine Your Funeral', a short film based on Vince and his real-life experience of losing his sister Lauren to an overdose.

This documentary is a behind-the-scenes look at the multi-day filmmaking process of the film and is a tribute to the real-life friends and family who helped Vince create this awareness film

A portrait of avant-garde artist Aurelio Caminati (1922–2008), whose prophetic vision spanned six turbulent decades through a determined compulsion to create. Set against the baroque intensity of Ireland's wild Atlantic coast and local heritage, the film fuses the raw power of nature with this resistance master's defiant, ever-evolving body of work. Aurelio Caminati channels nature's fury – declaring nature as the ultimate power source. Rejecting artistic and ideological conformity, Caminati plunges the viewer into subconscious undercurrents arising when storm-force nature trumps conventional ideologies.
