When I was in my mid 40’s I turned my life upside down to pursue a life I felt passionate about. And it all happened by accident. While I was working in Bulgaria I started a theatre company with two friends, with no intention of acting (never having done it before). But during preparations for the first production the director realised that they were one male short, and he turned to me. Once I had a taste there was no turning back. Playing a character in a story made me feel alive, as it still does.

Then slowly but surely the desire to tell the whole story, and from my unique perspective, grew stronger and stronger until I knew I had to start making films. - Bill Hutchens
