This short character documentary gives an intimate look at retiree George Fulfit as he constructs his biggest ever ship in a bottle. With infectious good spirits, running commentary and an abiding passion for his craft, George creates intricate tall ships in painstaking miniature, and shares the secret to the question we all wonder: ‘how’d they get that in there?’

    This is a really great film and I hope they allow it to be viewed. I'd like to buy a copy of it but it's impossible to find. George Fulfit is an inspiring ship in bottle builder.
