A Dundee man has received two awards for a short Gaelic film he made.

Ewan Smith (43), a self-employed designer, received the accolades at an awards ceremony held at the Eden Court Theatre, Inverness.

The event was organised by MG Alba, the company that helps run the Gaelic digital television service BBC Alba.

In November, Ewan submitted his three-minute flick Cnap-starra Canain (The Language Barrier) to FilmG, a Gaelic online digital shorts competition aimed at uncovering new talent and ideas for BBC Alba.

This year’s theme was “Gaisgeach”, which translates as hero, warrior or champion, and Cnap-starra Canain was up against 31 entries.

Ewan’s film is about a man walking his dog who is asked for directions by a most unusual visitor. It stars him and his Jack Russell Kali.

He was presented with his awards — for best drama/comedy and best first time director in the adult category — by Joe Thomas, star of sitcom The Inbetweeners.
