The passion for historical materials has been at the centre of my practice for two decades. In addition to the work on my own projects, I have also collaborated with other producers in the creation of a wide range of films and series. Some of them deal with issues of nation building and identity–a highlight is ‘Black Life: Untold Stories’, a groundbreaking eight-episode series on the Black experience in Canada that premiered at TIFF and is available on CBC.
Two projects that I’m particularly proud of are ‘To the Moon’, a poetic documentary produced by Irish filmmaker Tadgh O’Sullivan, and ‘Nisman: The Prosecutor, The President, and the Spy’, a true-crime documentary series produced for Netflix.
