Laitue
Director: Nicholas Brooks
Year: 2010
Laitue is a hand drawn film, tracing a brief journey from loss to a reunion of an unexpected kind. Two people are separated by time and space but nevertheless coincide in a series of movements which form a choreography of anticipation and unrest.
Transit of the Megaliths
Director: Nicholas Brooks
Year: 2013
In 1934 while on a road trip, British painter Paul Nash placed several small geometric objects onto a car roof to photograph them. Invoking the nomadic inclination of idealised form, Transit of the Megaliths provides a road trip for a set of fragments derived from paintings of the 1920s-40s.
Principal Boy
Director: Maz Murray
Year: 2024
Following the audition, rehearsal, and performance of the central character in British pantomime, known as the ‘principal boy’. Traditionally a young male protagonist, the character is conventionally played by a woman in drag. Using and subverting traditional British pantomime conventions, PRINCIPAL BOY explores the presence and absence of trans and gender-nonconforming people in mainstream culture, including film and stage productions.
