Shooting Mr Lamb

10/09/2023

What a brilliant time we had shooting our latest film Mr Lamb. Written by our dear friend Sebastian Baczkiewicz (Pilgrim, HomeFront, Holby City) and shot by the brilliant Matt Page, this intriguing and atmospheric short film was directed by Oddbodies’ Paul Morel and produced by the incredible Gary Barber. A beautiful labour of love, Mr Lamb will be receiving its premiere screening as part of Brighton’s CineCity Festival in November.
