Synopsis

"The film Nestor was designed specifically to be made alone -- not out of vanity, but necessity. After years of struggling to find the means to mount a traditional film production, I decided to go it alone. I wanted to test the very limits of independent filmmaking. The one rule I set for myself was do everything, from pre-production all the way to marketing, and never let anyone help. Making Nestor almost killed me, but I'm very proud of what I was able to accomplish way out in the sticks of northwestern Ontario." - Daniel Robinson
