“milk” is nominated for the @bafta award in the British Short Film category 🤍 I’ve been processing this news and journey over the last few days and it still feels surreal.
Congratulations to director @_miranda_stern_ and our entire incredible team whose collaborative craft and dedication made this film possible.
“milk” is a deeply personal story for the director about recovery and relationships, but it’s also one that resonates universally with people from all walks of life. From its inception, we aimed for the film to carry a message of survival.
Thank you to the Jury at @bafta for this recognition. We are honoured.
And thank you to @nftsfilmtv for providing us with the opportunity to connect as friends and filmmakers, experiment, and create something as raw and honest as “milk”.

A picture can tell many stories and I hope that these show resilience and that producers don’t all have to fit the same mold.

Dreaming Whilst Black Season 2 drops on @bbciplayer today and I’ve been reflecting a lot after the Premier.
This is a brilliant and incredibly powerful series that uses comedy as a vehicle for some hard truths about our industry.
Big congratulations to every single cast and crew member and to the creators, producers, writers and commissioners of this iconic series. @s.adjani@alichughes@dhannyjoshi@_nicolagregory Thomas Stogdon @bigdeal.tv and many others who have made space for these stories to be seen on screen.
Last but by no means least, a special mention to @omoyemiifyanasty@tharapop@danimoseley Babirye Bukilwa and countless other black women in front and behind the camera who authentically represented us with so much style, grace and truth 💐💐💐
Excited to share that myself and @_miranda_stern_ have been awarded funding from the Made of Truth Fund to make our next film, PORTRAIT OF GIRL. Beyond grateful, especially during really difficult and crucial times to secure public funding and create work rooted in the world around us. Thank you to @thedocsociety and @bfinetwork for supporting us and independent film.
