Documentary

  • This is an excerp from a 30-min documentary we made about 2 Londoners running marathons in the North Pole and the Sahara Desert in order to raise awareness about the impact of climate change. Actor Tim Curry (Rocky Horror Show) did the voice over.

  • In a very poor neighborhood in Old Dhaka, there is a building that doesn't look like it should actually be standing. Step inside and you'll be greeted by some truly inspiring and hardy folk, not at all squeamish about the cockroaches and spiders littering the building that terrified the not so hardy film makers who joined them one afternoon...

  • This is one of three short films we produced for the British council about Mexican fashion designer Carla Fernandez.

  • Client: CURRENT TV

    Produced at a time when media hysteria about gun crime was at a zenith, this is a short prize winning feature about the life of a gun carrier in Peckham, South London.
