Search Film follows the artist's father, the biologist Dr. Mick Marquiss as he tracks goshawks, an elusive bird of prey, in rural north east Scotland. The film becomes a search in itself, expanding into a broader conversation on the nature of searching across a variety of contexts, comparing innate foraging behaviour with clothes shopping and internet browsing.

Camera, sound and edit by Duncan Marquiss. Sound mixed by Derek O'Neill. Supported by Creative Scotland and The Elephant Trust.
