Meet the Buchanans

A clash of tartans in this offbeat documentary observing the run up and coming inauguration of the newly confirmed Chief of Clan Buchanan, millionaire Scottish landowner Mike Buchanan. With no chief for 300 years, and few historical records to go on, ritual and ceremony are being freely invented. As hundreds of kilt-wearing enthusiasts flock to their magnificent Highland estate for the event, are the Buchanans reinvigorating the Scottish Tradition, or following in the footsteps of their famous ancestral house guest novelist Sir Walter Scott? Whether Scotland and its history are seen Romantically, authentically, or somewhere in between, a rare chance to witness history in the making (up), a sideways look at how traditions are created, and surprisingly, the real pull of belonging.
