I Am a Spy (2015)
In the century when we invented aviation, when we invented cinema, in an age when we can move more and see more than any other point in history why have we become so watchful and so performative? I Am A Spy is a film that observes this watchfulness.

SOME STRINGS: found image & sound, 1901–2024 “the cinema of solidarity” (2024)
"The cinema of solidarity" is one of the propositions that compose the Some Strings program. Some strings is rooted in that which stains the screens of history: in Palestine, where poet and teacher Refaat Alareer, like so many others beings, was targeted by Israeli strikes and killed along with seven other members of his family.

Prospect (2025)
This dreamlike film revisits unused footage from The Garden, a film by artist and activist Derek Jarman. It places this alongside a new voice, reflecting on Jarman's life, art and home at Prospect Cottage in Dungeness. Jarman created beauty and community in a time of crisis. He lived openly, made work with urgency and built a garden on the shingle that still grows today. Prospect honours this spirit.

Projectionism (2022)
First we invented the moving-image camera. Then we used the new camera to record the world around us. But it was only when the moving image was finally seen on screen by its very first audience that cinema truly began. Air, speed, the world at 24fps: the modern world was promisingly, thrillingly, on the move. Or that’s what we thought. Today a virus has disrupted the smooth momentum of our shared world. The continuum that cinema always promised is one of this virus’ many casualties. From time to time essential quarantines shut the doors on communal spaces. When that happens it is up to us, the audience, to play our part: to keep the space of cinema open.

Correspondence (2020)
While working on her recent film commission for Kettle’s Yard, Here is Elsewhere , Sarah Wood became curious about what the exhibition of art means at this time. In one part of Kettle’s Yard Alfred Wallis Rediscovered is installed and in another part of the gallery, Wood’s film. How do they relate to one another? How does art enable connection? The answer was Correspondence ­– a short essay film constructed from archive footage taken around the Cornish coastline. Correspondence speaks across time to fellow artist Alfred Wallis about the role the site of art plays in a time of social isolation. The scripted voiceover in the new film takes the form of a letter written by Wood to Wallis.

I Want to be a Secretary (2007)
The footage for I Want to Be a Secretary has been reclaimed and reworked from a selection of all but forgotten post-war recruitment films encouraging the modern girl to pursue a secretarial career. What other path is open to an independent-minded young lady after all? What are the secrets of the boardroom? And what is the meaning of the firm-but-fair Miss Ingall's mysterious smile? Our plucky young career gal heroine is about to find out.

For Cultural Purposes Only (2009)
The Palestinian Film Archive contained over 100 films showing the daily life and struggle of the Palestinian people. It was lost in the Israeli siege of Beirut in 1982. Here interviewees describe from memory key moments from the history of Palestinian cinema. These scenes are drawn and animated. Where film survives, the artist’s impressions are corroborated. This is a film about reconstruction and the idea that cinema is an expression of cultural identity – that cinema fuels memory.
