About
Shot on 16mm film, Mirrors is a lucid diary and poetic map of an island, its relationships, customs, rifts and bonds, depicting its diverse individuals, communities, and historic events. As we gaze at our reflection in this film, it takes us on a mesmeric journey through seven unprecedented years in England.
Runtime: 28 mins followed by Q&A

Paul’s work focuses on marginalised and working class communities, and the effects of austerity through the use of analogue formats in still and moving image.
In 2018 he was one of 100 winners of The British Journal of Photography’s ‘Portrait of Britain’ prize and was exhibited nationwide.
His film ‘Mirrors’, a seven year effort supported by BFI Doc Society, premiered last year in the International Short Competition at Sheffield DocFest and was longlisted for Best Short Film at BIFA.
