FILM writer-director Jessica Fox was working as Nasa’s storyteller when it occurred to her that her future might lie in a small town in Scotland.
“I kept on having a vision of a girl working in a bookshop in Scotland. I thought, ‘this is going to be an amazing rom-com I’ll write but I could see myself in a woolly jumper and it was raining – little did I know how accurate that part would be,” she said.
Now, as her debut feature film Stella, shot in Galloway House on Wigtown Bay, Dumfries and Galloway finds success, she tells The National how a woman born in Boston and living in California found herself living and making movies in Scotland.
