Freshly widowed and fiercely devoted to local history, Kenneth McKay (Peter Mullan) spends his days guiding visitors through a fading museum dedicated to Arberloch’s celebrated son, Sir Douglas Weatherford. But when a blockbuster fantasy TV series transforms the sleepy town into a pop-culture hotspot, Kenneth finds his beloved hero eclipsed by dragons, fandom, and fame. Determined to protect Sir Douglas’s legacy, he embarks on an increasingly desperate mission that threatens to upend his world.

Led by a richly layered performance from Peter Mullan, The Fall of Sir Douglas Weatherford is a tender, offbeat, and distinctly British tale of identity, grief, and the struggle to remain relevant in a rapidly changing world.
