Anthony Kelly started shooting Super 8 as a teenager, trained at Open Channel in Fitzroy in the early 1990's and shot punk gigs, protests and post-apocalyptic shorts until activism and campaign work took over. He had to put the camera down for the next 20 years after realizing that you cant play key organising roles and shoot documentaries at the same time.
Nowadays Anthony brings over three decades of peace, environmental and social justice activism to documentary film making. Anthony has shot, edited and directed a series of short-form and mid-length projects over the past 10 years. Our Warrior is his first mid-length documentary as Director.
Based in Melbourne, Australia Anthony forefronts under-heard and deeply personal narratives of resistance, change and resilience in the face of extraordinary odds.
