Фильмы

Витгенштейн
Prisoner
Картина в театрализованной манере прослеживает жизненный путь Людвига Витгенштейна от рождения до самой смерти — детство, студенческие годы в Кембридже, где его наставником был Бертран Рассел и где начали формироваться идеи будущего философа, осознание своей гомосексуальности, пребывание на фронте во время Первой мировой войны, возвращение в Кембридж в статусе профессора.
Lighting Camera
A film on Saint Teresa that leads us through an unnervingly authentic extreme state of religious and sexual ecstasy. With the central image of the statue of Saint Teresa of Avila in Rome, together with glimpses of colour-saturated flower gardens, the Crucifixion and Baroque plasterwork, we listen to the gulping and frenetically clipped voice of the ‘saint’ pouring out her rapturous lament, attempting to express the unsayable. The film’s soundtrack combines a spoken voice by Nina Danino and performed vocals by New York experimental singer Shelley Hirsch.
Sara Dale’s Sensual Massage
Lighting Camera
Instructional video produced following a tabloid scandal
The Gay Man’s Guide to Safer Sex
Director of Photography
Instructional documentary produced in association with the Terrence Higgins Trust.
Strip Jack Naked
Director of Photography
Ron Peck talks about his experiences of growing up as a gay man, the attitudes to homosexuality in Britain, and his journey towards making his film "Nighthawks" (1978).
The Wanderer
Cinematography
Adaptation of the Anglo-Saxon poem The Wanderer, telling of a warrior's loss of a beloved Lord and his subsequent loneliness as he tracks across countries, exiled from a community.
The Garden
Camera Operator
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.

На Англию прощальный взгляд
Cinematography
Взгляд на современную Англию королевы Елизаветы, прошедшей ради этого сквозь века и очутившейся в нашем времени. Безумная мозаика умирающего, катящегося в пропасть, дрянного и всё равно прекрасного мира
Ария
Director of Photography
Десять режиссеров. Десять арий. Десять фильмов. Удивительно чувственный эксперимент.
The Queen Is Dead
Director of Photography
Three song clips by The Smiths ('The Queen is Dead', 'There is a Light that Never Goes Out' and 'Panic'), all directed with an artistic and conceptual vision by the late Derek Jarman. The result is the junction of the powerful lyrics and melodies by Morrissey and Marr combined with Jarman's expressive images.
