This City
This experimental documentary uses montage editing to take the viewer on a personal exploration through the Yorkshire city of Bradford. This City utilises avant-garde techniques inspired by the city symphony genre. The film is accompanied by a beautiful score matching the rhythm of the visual tempo, as well as poetry readings taking us on a journey to discover the essence of this beautiful, troubled, historical city.

I'm a filmmaker from Bradford, West Yorkshire. I studied film at Lancaster University. My works so far explore themes such as the effects of capitalism, the contemporary city, memory, and isolation. I have an interest in experimentation, montage, and avant-garde techniques.
