Short film showcases appreciation for small elements of daily life in Bristol

By Safiya Bashir  Monday Jun 21, 2021

A new short film made by Patrick Simpson showcases an appreciation for the unappreciated, small elements of daily life in Bristol.

Featuring the voice of Saili Katebe, also known as The Blissful Nomad, the inspiration behind the video came from Patrick’s daily commutes around Bristol and the South West.

“I hope it acts as a relaxing and therapeutic film, as well as an educational film,” said Patrick.

“With local residents taking comfort that their fondness for their city is shared and has been visualised by both the footage and poetry. For those not from Bristol, I hope it evokes the shared mentalities Bristolians share and thrive from.”

Watch Patrick’s video now for a nostalgic view of Bristol and the South West:
