Director: Peter Bromley

Year: 2026

Unveiling the untold story of Joe Dilworth, the photographer who captured the pulse of London and Berlin’s music underground. Through his lens, time stands still - raw, electric, and unfiltered. As he reflects on his craft, his city, and his legacy, this intimate documentary reveals how a single frame can echo across generations. The documentary is an intimate exploration of the life and photographs of Joe Dilworth, whose black-and-white photography immortalized the energy of the music scene in London and Berlin. Set against the evocative backdrop of Berlin, this documentary follows Dilworth as he reflects on his decades-long career, revisits iconic moments in his photographic journey, and shares insights into his process and philosophy. Weaving together interviews, archival photographs, and atmospheric sequences of Berlin, the film paints a portrait of a city and an artist united by their resilience, creativity, and layered histories. From the solitude of his darkroom to the social vitality of his photo bookshop and studio, viewers witness the symbiotic relationship between a photographer and his vision, uncovering how the art of still photography can transcend time and place.
