ABOUT

Hello! I'm Matt Coleclough, a young director from Bristol, now based in London.
I try to make films where you lean forward slightly, where you go 'That's exactly what that's like.' I want you to leave the cinema and ask, 'What am I doing?', or, 'What are we doing to each other?' As I improve, I want my directing to serve the story as simply and honestly and unobtrusively as possible.
My short films so far have been about people who want to connect with each other, but don't know how. For me, this is an important part of what is is like, and what it means, to be a person. I also write short stories.
