Fridays with Barry (U.K. / U.S.)

in production

Ffilm Cymru / TV & Film Charity

Barry David Horwitz was born into a poor Jewish family in Chicago. With a passion for literature at an early age, he pursued a career in academia and spent his working life as a Professor of Shakespeare at the University of Berkeley, California where his larger-than-life character became legendary. Having retired and entered his eighties, Barry has been forced to negotiate a new approach to life.

Eola Street is a personal, frank and poignant look at age and ageing, and intergenerational friendship.
