“Portrait of a Letterpress Printer” is a short documentary directed by Amberley and Florent from the Of Two Lands production company that showcases the work of Rockley, Australia printer William Amer, who continues to work on old letterpress printing machines.

The smell of the ink, the smell of the solvents to wash the machine up, the paper all over the place, the dust.
