Lift / Calais: The Last Border / Travellers
“Lift, Travellers and Calais - The Last Border were my first three films and they were made between 2001 and 2003. Each film is set in a particular transient space. The individual settings are key to the human stories that unfold because they allow the time and space for reflection on what it means to be alive.
I 'cut my teeth' making these three films and much of what I learnt has remained with me to this day. I think that some of the characters in these works are amongst the most memorable in any of my films and I hope they resonate with you.”
