ALBINO UNITED (2010)- CO-DIRECTOR AND PRODUCER

In recent years albinos have been murdered in Tanzania, some as young as six months old. Their body parts are used by witchdoctors in potions and remedies, and are sold for thousands of dollars. They are believed to bring wealth and success.  “Albino United” tells the story of a football team in Tanzania made up of albino’s. They are a rag-tag group of young men with the ambition to prove to the country that they are able to take part in everyday society, and more importantly, play football.  Recently accepted into the Tanzanian 3rd Division, their journey will take them to the heart of the dangerous albino killing zones, playing infront of crowds, getting to see the World Cup, and even meeting Didier Drogba.  But above all, for Albino United, this is an opportunity to communicate to huge crowds that attitudes towards people with albinism must change and the killings must stop.

 

 

ON THAT DAY (2008)- CO-DIRECTOR AND PRODUCER

Documentary for Channel 4 about a massacre that took place in Iraq where Marines killed 24 civilians with access to never before seen footage.

"...this documentary traces the historical timeline and aftermath of an unintelligible revenge rampage triggered by an IED (Improvised Explosive Device) in 2005, planted by Iraqi insurgents and successfully ending one occupants life. With access to the bulk of audiovisual evidence and testaments used in an inescapable but to some degree predetermined trial, the study of one massacre becomes the awful truth of a nation..." - Time Out Critics Choice Review
