While filming the documentary “iAmerica,” we wrote and created social media content in cities down the east coast. We held human-scale conversation spaces with local businesses, institutions and many of the interesting and influential people the group knew from the social web. The focus of these conversations will be to explore the similarities and differences between British, Canadian and US cultures, separated as we are by our common language.

| Wild West Dream Producer/ Co-director Atlantic Film Festival Premiere Edmonton International Film Festival September, 2009 Outside of North America, the Wild West invokes images of line dancing and country music; Clint Eastwood and John Wayne. But to 36-year-old Irish-born firefighter, Gareth Boyd, the Wild West means so much more. Gareth likes to ride bulls. Big bulls. Not for the faint-hearted, this is rough stock riding – the most dangerous event in the rodeo – where the aim is to stay bareback on a bull for 8 seconds.

| The Last Thakur London Film Festival Premiere Dubai International Film Festival October, 2008 UK film-maker Sadik Ahmed directs this intense contemporary Western, which takes place in a remote town in the marshlands of Bangladesh. A mysterious young man, Kala, arrives armed with a rifle. He immediately creates a stir in the small town and especially attracts the attention of two rival leaders: the ruthless and powerful Chairman who runs the place and purports to represent his people and the one man that stands in his way: the local Thakur, one of the last Hindu landlords, who is manically re-claiming all the surrounding land for which loans remain un-paid in order to build a temple. Walking into the middle of this bitter feud, Kala soon finds himself approached by both men to take their side. Broke and hungry, Kala begins to bargain with them, but he is here on his own mission, to find the man that raped and killed his mother and take his revenge. Some of Bangladesh’s finest theatre performers offer great performances. Ahmed’s training as a cinematographer is clearly evident in the bold picturisation of haunting landscapes and hollow-face-men with murder on their minds. “This beautifully shot film perfectly captures the rising tension Directed by: Sadik Ahmed Written by: Heather Taylor, Sadik Ahmed Cast: Tariq Anam, Tanveer Hasan, Rubel Ahmed, Anisur Rahman Milon Distributor: Artificial Eye Country: UK-Bangladesh Year: 2008 Running time: 81min |
