Magnetism
Cinematography
A young man (Joe Kennedy) travels into the countryside. The phone message he repeatedly listens to on his phone is fragmented. He cycles to a crossroads where a bunch of flowers with a note attached is taped to a gatepost, then on to a scrapyard. He finds a car with audio cassettes hidden in the glove compartment. The owner of the yard calls out to him, his dog finally chasing the man away.

The Last Sparks of Sundown
Director of Photography
Two down-on-their-luck American brothers travel to England to sell their late grandfather's country estate. A straightforward plan if it weren't for the strangers in the house and the sinister man on their tail.
The Queen
Clapper Loader
The Queen is an intimate behind the scenes glimpse at the interaction between HM Elizabeth II and Prime Minister Tony Blair during their struggle, following the death of Diana, to reach a compromise between what was a private tragedy for the Royal family and the public's demand for an overt display of mourning.
The Alcohol Years
Lighting Camera
Carol Morley returns to Manchester, where in the early 1980s, five years of her life were lost in an alcoholic blur. The Alcohol Years is a poetic retrieval of that time, in which rediscovered friends and acquaintances recount tales of her drunken and promiscuous behavior. In Morley’s search for her lost self, conflicting memories and viewpoints weave in and out, revealing a portrait of the city, its pop culture, and the people who lived it.
