in 2024 I was involved in creating a film called NOT ALL MEN. A conversation that sadly is ALWAYS relevant! it is less of a narrative piece and more of a collection of conversations we as filmmakers had heard or been involved in when it comes to *grape and S.A.
The film ends with what ACTUALLY MATTERS, the brutal truth in the overwhelming majoroty of cases! it is available on my YouTube. link in bio. MASSIVE TRIGGER WARNINGS

The Unwinding short film continues to get comments like this one, posted earlier today, 2 years after its release. The feature script is now done, the business plan is in place, and I’m ready make it. I need partners in the UK who’re experienced with the BFI, and/or connected to the BBC or Film4 or other suitable funding / production / distribution entities, to make it a reality. Budget: £1M. Potential: limitless. Let’s go.

GOD’ ARROWS - OUT ON YOUTUBE AUGUST 2ND 2026. 🎯⛪️💄
The film will finally be available on YouTube on Sunday the 2nd of August. I cannot believe it will be out there, to be seen by anyone… I’m very excited for it to be out. I chose the 2nd of August as it will be another heavenly birthday of my Nanny Linda (slide 2 & 3) so much has happened since you’ve gone and I know for a fact if you was still here you’d be so proud and laughing at all my gigs - love and miss you always. Here’s to many more films & sketches from me. Please give it as much support as you can once it’s out. #shortfilm #comedyfilms #indiefilmmaker #comedian

Two years ago, The Unwinding was a little independent short film that I hoped a few people might watch.

Today, it has well over a million views and is available with manually prepared subtitles in 36 languages.

Every new language means someone, somewhere, can experience the film in a way that wasn’t possible before.

Thank you to everyone who’s watched, shared, commented, and encouraged me along the way. This has been one of the most rewarding creative experiences of my career.

More languages - and more films - to come.

In other news, “The Unwinding” short film (linked in my bio here) just crossed one million views. Totally organic, zero paid promotion - and the analytics behind the views have given me a PERFECT roadmap of the market for the feature film. I’m currently looking for a UK-based producer - ideally, with strong connections and experience in the world of socially-conscious filmmaking - to help me make this a reality. Or a producer-funder based anywhere who gets it and wants to be involved. If that’s you or you know someone, please put us in touch!

Cast, crew, & friends of The Unwinding and/or Dirt Track Honeymoon, some sad news. I found out today that our EP and friend, Stan Ruszkowski, passed away on April 30. Not only would we not have these films without him, but my very life today would look remarkably different. I’m putting together a longer video for YouTube to honor him with more photos and video but for now, I wanted to let everyone know this much. Stan, rest in peace.

From over 500 applications down to 3rd Place for Acting Ensemble at @bigfridgefilmfestival ! 🥉🎯❤️God’s Arrows strikes again! Please give all your love to the amazing actors who made the film what it is. A special thank you and introduction to my arrows:

1. Father Henry aka @dcharlesdoherty . I was so lucky to cast Charles as my lead in my final year student production, and even luckier to work with him again on this, he is talented, a team player and most importantly a kind and funny soul off screen. Thank you! X

2. Winnie aka @janbo184 . The heart of the cast and crew, Jan brought her true self into the role and made everyone fall in love with her and of course her beautiful dogs! Jan is so talented and so easy to work with and I cannot wait to reunite with her. Thank you! X

3. Bea aka @lami_rosian . Beas character is extremely complex so needed to be played by someone who could ACT!!! I was so blessed to connect with Lami who gave me advice and even helped with re-writing a scene. This girl can do it all so keep your eyes peeled! Thank you! X

4. Maggie aka @maggie_tully . My project hero, our original casting dropped out literally two days before filming but in a crazy turn of events I got Margaret who played the character better than anyone else ever could’ve! A true professional & talent, with the most amazing stories. Thank you! X

5. Luke aka @guy_van_onselen . Last but not least, what a powerhouse actor Guy is, also the loveliest person off camera. Lukes character has many layers and Guy showcased them so well through the film. Guy has some other exciting projects coming out so check him out! Thank you! X

Also a huge shoutout to the rest of the cast who are just as talented and I am sure you will be seeing them all over your screens : @shaunstoneactor @kikibabsofficial @jamie_read_ @kirsty_nolan_ @wesleylloyd1977 & Morris Mindel.
