Thrilled to finally make it official — last summer, @salam_works , @krabbenorbert and I began working on our first independent documentary feature together. It tells a story close to our hearts: the journey of female and queer refugees starting a new life in a safe space, while navigating the very real challenges of accessing education, fair employment, healthcare, and basic safety and respect. After wrapping a few shoots, we’re excited to be presenting the project at the Edinburgh Pitch Forum 2025 this June. Huge thanks to @scottishdocinstitute for this amazing opportunity. Finally I would also like to thank @womens_voices_now for the support that helped us cover our first shoot — and for giving me the confidence to believe this ambitious idea could actually become a reality.

In Colour Stills from 'Old Town' directed by @charlieosborne.xyz , an exhibition piece for the 'In the Offing' program at the @turnercontemporary curated by Mark Leckey.  One of the most unique projects I've experienced in all my time in film and got to shoot thanks to @jack_cullis .Gaffer @charlie.ring , with the help of @dylansschultz and @the.barbers.cut . @lauraflackk pulling focus and sharing my joy of weirdness, with @ruben.nev assisting, and @nicoleatalla traineeing.  Lighting and camera kit provided by @blundellstudios , including the gorgeous Sony Venice II with Master Anamorphics setup. #exhibition #art #filmmaking #artfilm #sonyvenice #masteranamorphic #firewalkwithme
