Indi

An artist film based on a novella I penned in 2017 inspired by the story of the first great hope of a professional British Asian footballer.

After a long development period alongside Flamin', my boldest artist film to date emerged, as we enter the inner worlds of mother and son's relationship, both in the last stretches of life.

For Indi, it's metaphoric — the death of a dream — and for his Mother, it's actual as she's summoned into the afterlife by Sadar, a stalker of souls on Black Country canals. In the work we experience Indi's loving relationship with his seamstress Mum; domestic scenes and rich VFX scenes; we witness an in-between world of imagination, where people wait to be taken by the Sardar, to journey into the next life.
