The film was made at the height of lockdown in 2020. It was first shown at the "Kings Of Clubs" online international Drag King show with the intention to spread joy and encourage audiences to keep spirits high! In the film, Ella is “Richard Melanin The Third discovering a clever way to keep 2 metres apart whilst out for a run in the park." The work is a playful response to the situation we find ourselves in, creating a spectacle from a familiar activity that plays with the obstacle. “I wanted to make a piece that didn’t concentrate on the problem and instead looked at new possibilities as the solution." - Ella The Great
