Colum, Jamie Fraser's maternal uncle, is a man who
reigns as laird over
powerful Clan MacKenzie. Suffering from a
degenerative disease now known as
Toulouse-Latrec Syndrome, Colum must rely on Dougal to
be the true muscle of the clan.
Wracked with physical pain and often rendered
immobile, Colum resorts to wine to dull
his pain but is able to rise to the occasion when
necessary to solidify his position as clan leader.
Lewis, the internationally acclaimed actor, is best

Festival's Best Actor Award for his role in Peter Mullan's Orphans. His
film credits include the films My Name is Joe, Libertador, The Strange Case of Wilhelm Reich, and the Oscar-nominated Joyeux Noël.
