There's Hope... (JM Barrie and the Lost Boys)

poem by Anno Birkin to a video of him in Flanders as a 3 year old exploring with his mum, Bee at the British War Cemetery at Voormezeele in Belgium in April 1984. They are upon the grave of George Llewelyn Davies (the eldest of the 5 boys that inspired their gaurdian, JM Barrie to write Peter Pan).

The video is shot by his dad, Andrew, who wrote the biography "JM Barrie and the Lost Boys" and the tv miniseries of the same subject. The poem is read by the actor, Ian Holm, who played JM Barrie in the television series.

Anno was killed in 2001. For more of his words and music, please visit: anno.co.uk
