Bishop Edward King Chapel Bishop Edward King Chapel

Director: Nilesh Patel

Year: 2016

This film presents one art form through another; architecture through film. If architecture is the interplay of built form in light and film is the viewing of images through light, can an architectural film present images of wood, light and stone that might shape our religious and spiritual life?

A Love Supreme A Love Supreme

Director: Nilesh Patel

Year: 2001

A tribute to the director’s Mother who has Rheumatoid Arthritis, this audio-visual essay on the preparation of samosas is a record of her skilled hands, in case they become affected. The film was inspired by the boxing sequences from 'Raging Bull' ©United Artists/MGM.

Spacewoman Spacewoman

Director: Hannah Berryman

Year: 2024

A landmark feature documentary about astronaut Eileen Collins, the first woman to pilot and command the Space Shuttle.<br /> Eileen’s incredible journey starts with her smalltown beginnings, sees her smash through many glass ceilings, and culminates in four dramatic space shuttle missions, the last being possibly the most dangerous and most important of them all.<br /> At its heart the film is the moving human drama of one family, where a mother’s extraordinary career takes us straight to the big philosophical question of what is the level of acceptable risk in human endeavour? <br /> This film celebrates Commander Collins’ trailblazing NASA career which opened the way for women to become spacecraft pilots and commanders, and proved a perfect riposte to a previous generation of male astronauts who thought there was no place for women to lead the way in space. <br /> Official Selection DOC NYC 2024 - World premiere<br /> Official Selection CPH:DOX 2025 - European premiere
