Louis Paxton’s Full-Circle Film Debut | Glasgow News

Louis Paxton, the filmmaker who started as an usher at Edinburgh’s iconic film festival, is now premiering his debut feature “The Incomer” — a comedy-drama set on a remote Scottish island starring Domhnall Gleeson, Gayle Rankin, and Grant O’Rourke. Inspired by his mother’s Orkney roots and shaped by twelve years of perseverance, the film captures isolation with a sharp Scottish wit, shot in Caithness after logistical hurdles forced a change of location. The cast and crew forged a tight-knit bond, turning challenges into triumphs, while Paxton proudly celebrates this homegrown success — the latest Scottish gem to open the Edinburgh International Film Festival, where he first fell in love with cinema as a teen.
