“Daphne, thank you for being my friend – we’re like polar opposites, aren’t we? We’re from opposite ends of the spectrum.’

– David Barron

“You’ve got to get that out of your head. We’re not polar opposites, we’re the same. I have issues with people who have issues, or make divisions – because they don’t see people for what they are, they just look at what they have, or who they are, or where they come from.”

– Daphne Guinness

“That’s why I love music, its because you can connect with people on a very real level. Rather than it being about either money, class, race, religion or anything else… It is the last leveller of society.”

– Daphne Guinness

A Film By David V Barron

Filmed in and around Daphne’s stunning Irish residence, I am immensely proud to present an unreserved and candid insight into the creative and musical processes of my friend, Daphne Guinness.

From classical castrati to Daphne’s musical influences and opinion on modern-day celebrity, our relaxed chat is juxtaposed with raw and quick paced film segments that move the viewer forward with glimpses of how Daphne creates her music – from practicing the melodic lines of a track that still require lyrics, to the surreal, esoteric and dreamlike sequences that form aspects of who I know Daphne to be as a human being.

“I don’t allow people near me, I am pretty reclusive but David is my shining star. He is a true artist” 

– Daphne Guinness (Artist  / Idol)

“The last Leveller is nothing short of a revelation. It captures some of the amazing energy of Daphne Guinness”

– Dana Giacchetto (Wolf of Wallstreet)

“David you are quite the talent. Totally loved this video. You have captured so many interesting qualities in her by allowing the camera to be. Congrats!”

–  Jane Badler (Singer / Actress)

“Kudos to David on a quiet masterpiece. It is Daphne Guinness, for those of us privileged to know.”
