Fleadh on Film: Where You're Meant to Be

Scottish cult-pop raconteur Aidan Moffat, frontman of indie band Arab Strap sets out to explore his country's past by rewriting and touring its oldest songs.

It's meant to be a tour that allows Moffat to explore the roots of his country. It's meant to be a trip that celebrates Scotland's communities and lore. But then he meets Sheila Stewart - a 79-year-old force of nature and travelling balladeer whose life, and unexpected death, upturns Moffat's musical assumptions. He believes these old songs are ripe for updating against a modern urban backdrop. She does not. With Sheila's criticism ringing in his ears, the bold Moffat embarks on a trip around Scotland's remote parts that proves to be as uncanny as the Scottish weather.
