Glasgow actor Daniel Kerr opens up on 'toxic' weight loss and body image that inspired new film

A BAFTA-award winning actor has swapped reading a script for creating his very own as he's soon to release a short film, which he wrote and directed, about body image.

Daniel Kerr, who was recognised as the Best Young Performer for his portrayal of gangster Paul Ferris in 2013 film The Wee Man, is premiering his film Norm at Odeon Luxe, in Springfield Quay, on January 28.

Norm tells the story of a man who goes on a five-week intensive diet after being unhappy with the way he looks. But it soon becomes clear that his methods of losing weight are toxic and causing harm not only to himself, but those around him too.
