About

I’m a director, based in London, working across documentary, fiction and virtual reality. My work has been featured on National Geographic, NOWNESS, The Atlantic and Vimeo Staff Picks, and has screened at BAFTA and Oscar qualifying festivals around the world. My short documentary War and Cheese was longlisted for the 2017 BAFTA Short Film Award. I’m an alumni of BAFTA Crew x BFI Network, a development initiative set up by the UK’s leading film bodies, and have received mentorship from Werner Herzog as part of an initiative he led in Cuba. www.bengarfield.com
