Meeting with Paul Sng and Irvine Welsh, the director and the protagonist of the film ‘Irvine Welsh: Reality Is not Enough’
after the screening of IRVINE WELSH: REALITY IS NOT ENOUGH, dir. Paul Sng
The traces Irvine Welsh’s life from his childhood in Leith through fame and travels, including hallucinogenic adventures in Canada. He enjoys himself both in Los Angeles and at international literary festivals. Welsh rarely speaks about the craft of writing, nor does he boast like many lesser talents; instead, the film highlights his enthusiasm for music and sport, which he regards as equally important as literature. In this intimate portrait, we meet a celebrated writer at a crossroads fully aware of the passage of time, accepting that his hedonistic days are ending, yet still committed to discovering new creative avenues.
