El Caníbal en la Jungla
Director of Photography
En 1.977 tres científicos se adentraron en las junglas de Indonesia para estudiar aves. Sólo uno de ellos regresó, el doctor timothy darrow. Las autoridades días después encontraron a otro de los miembros de la expedición totalmente descuartizado y prácticamente irreconocible. Los investigadores jamás encontraron los restos de la otra víctima y timothy darrow fue acusado de doble homicidio y hubo sospechas de canibalismo. Timothy darrow defendió su inocencia durante todo el juicio e intentó demostrar que los realmente culpables eran unas criaturas que vivían en la jungla, pero nadie lo creyó. Lo que él dijo parecía ser imposible pero en 2013 se recuperaron cintas originales de las grabaciones de aquel día.

Set in Belfast against the backdrop of the 1986 World Cup, Shooting for Socrates tells the story of a momentous time in Northern Ireland's football history through the eyes of players, fans and the media. The film also follows the lives of passionate football supporter Arthur and his son Tommy from East Belfast. The lead up to a momentous day in the life of a young boy (his 10th birthday) mirrors the build up to the big day for the Northern Ireland football team as they play the greatest match of their lives.
Pantani: The Accidental Death of a Cyclist
Director of Photography
In 1998 Marco Pantani, the most flamboyant and popular cyclist of his era, won both the Tour de France and Giro d'Italia, a titanic feat of physical and mental endurance that no rider has repeated since. He was a hero to millions, the saviour of cycling following the doping scandals which threatened to destroy the sport. However, less than six years later, aged just 34, he died alone, in a cheap hotel room, from acute cocaine poisoning. He had been an addict for five years. This is the story of the tragic battles fought by the most important Italian cyclist of his generation; man verses mountain, athlete verses addiction, Marco Pantani verses himself.
The Battle of the Sexes
Director of Photography
Tennis star and women’s rights activist Billie Jean King won a total of 12 Grand Slam titles, but the biggest match of her career took place in 1973 against former men’s champion Bobby Riggs, a self-proclaimed male chauvinist pig who declared that, even at the age of 55, he could beat any woman in the world.
