Filmes

Night Work
Makeup & Hair
One of a series of films combining music and images: an office cleaner, and what happens to some of the people who work in the building.
Piccadilly Circus by Night
Makeup Artist
European emigre Tanya moves to London to work as a family au pair. Still grieving for her recently deceased father and rejected by an old friend, Tanya draws closer to her employer's husband. The sights and sounds of the Capital at Christmas form a deceptively romantic backdrop, for this brief meditation on loneliness and love.
The Gay Man’s Guide to Safer Sex
Makeup Artist
Instructional documentary produced in association with the Terrence Higgins Trust.
O Jardim
Makeup Artist
A nearly wordless visual narrative intercuts two main stories and a couple of minor ones. A woman, perhaps the Madonna, brings forth her baby to a crowd of intrusive paparazzi; she tries to flee them. Two men who are lovers marry and are arrested by the powers that be. The men are mocked and pilloried, tarred, feathered, and beaten. Loose in this contemporary world of electrical-power transmission lines is also Jesus. The elements, particularly fire and water, content with political power, which is intolerant and murderous.
Crepúsculo do Caos
Makeup Artist
The artist's personal commentary on the decline of his country in a language closer to poetry than prose. A dark meditation on London under Thatcher.
