04 / Human Stories
Human condition.
Intimate documentary portraiture - the fascinators, the fringe experts, the people quietly building things that matter.
This is the work we're most curious about. A natural inclination to ask one more question, and the patience to actually wait for the answer, means we tend to get stories from people that other crews don't even uncover. The acclaimed 'Grounded' series is the clearest expression of this thread: intimate portrayals of resilience and quiet triumph. New work in the same vein is always happening - community, craft, fringe culture, anywhere a story is hiding in plain sight.
