‘Driven’ a Feature Documentary | First Official Trailer
Here is the first official trailer from the Feature Documentary I shot last year – ‘Driven’ (aka Alfred and Jakobine); ‘A father and son’s eccentric road trip into their estranged past’
Jonthan Howells, Rob Fletcher (FW), myself and the rest of the small but incredible crew spent 7 weeks in late last year following the story of Alfred Hobb’s last trip across American in a 1935 Austin Taxi cab. The 83-year-old man and his son, will climbed aboard the 73-year-old London taxi, determined to drive 2500 miles east to seek out and surprise the woman who is central to both of their lives. Alfred hoping she will accept his offer of “one last drive in their old taxi … before it’s too late.” We shot the story very simply on both HD video and 16mm, using a small crew. In the end we all became equal part mechanics as we were filmmakers…
Here in the trailer we can start to see the amazing tale unravel for the first time. Exciting stuff.
Below are a few production shots from the trip with more to be found on the Driven Facebook page here: Driven Facebook Page
