British screenwriter and director based in London. His first short film, ‘Sunday Morning Coming Down’, was nominated for Best Short Film at the Iris Prize Festival, recognized by the 2018 BAFTAs. His next short film, ‘Wren Boys’, which premiered in competition at the BFI London Film Festival, had a long run at international festivals and was nominated for Best Short Film at the BAFTA and BIFA Awards, and had its US Premiere at Sundance.
