A queer painter, a non binary writer and portraiture like you’ve never seen it before….
Two British Artists: lesbian portrait painter Sadie Lee and Non-Binary writer Libro Levi Bridgeman were born on the same day. This coincidence led to a friendship and a collaboration: a portrait of Libro. The short film details the overlap of their queer lives from the 80s on and eventually to the reveal of the portrait…. The portrait is a first for art, important for queer politics and sensational to see.

Sarah has worked in television for 25 years and this is her first foray into the world of Short Films since leaving film school many years ago. Sarah trained as a Cinematographer achieving a BA in Film Video and Animation and an MA in Film Production (Lighting Camera). Sarah spent many years as one of the few female Lighting Cameramen in TV until a chance to move across the floor into production as a Series Director arose in 2010. The recent collaboration with close friend Sadie Lee also rekindled a relationship with Libro Levi Bridgeman, first formed at film school in a short lesbian film that Sarah worked on called “The Last Time". Sarah jumped at the opportunity to do something different and make a film that told an important story at a pertinent time in the history of Queer Politics.
