Alex Thomas - Director

For episode two, season two of The Doc Makers podcast, I’m delighted to be talking to the multi award winning director, Alex Thomas. Alex’s projects include 'Erased: World War Twos Heroes of Colour' and 'Yorkshire Cop: Police Racism and Me', a film made about his Father.We discuss how he navigated his way from a small mining town in the north of England to becoming a globetrotting filmmaker, before landing back in the UK creating touchstone films like 'Bibaa & Nicole: Murder in the Park' and his most recent film, released earlier this month, 'Damilola: The Untold Story', which the Guardian selected as one of its “50 shows to watch this autumn”.A genuine creative force and a bloody nice guy to boot.Show notes:Alex Thomashttps://www.imdb.com/name/nm16254630/?ref_=ext_shr_lnkhttps://www.sternwild.com/film-makers/alex-thomasBibaa & Nicole: Murder in the Parkhttps://www.imdb.com/title/tt37542405/?ref_=ext_shr_lnkDamilola: The Untold Storyhttps://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episode/m0032lg7/damilola-the-untold-storyTrue Visionhttps://www.truevisiontv.com/Stacey Dooleyhttps://www.imdb.com/name/nm4099152/?ref_=ext_shr_lnkUnreported Worldhttps://www.imdb.com/title/tt0477545/?ref_=ext_shr_lnkBruce Parryhttps://www.imdb.com/name/nm1942896/?ref_=ext_shr_lnkMike Lewishttps://www.ninelivesmedia.co.uk/mikeBecky Cadmanhttps://www.imdb.com/name/nm11063116/?ref_=ext_shr_lnkYorkshire Cop: Police, Racism and Mehttps://www.channel4.com/programmes/yorkshire-cop-police-racism-and-meJohn Boyegahttps://www.imdb.com/name/nm3915784/?ref_=ext_shr_lnkSteve McQueenhttps://www.imdb.com/name/nm2588606/?ref_=ext_shr_lnkSmall Axehttps://www.imdb.com/title/tt3464896/?ref_=ext_shr_lnkNelson Adeosunhttps://www.imdb.com/name/nm5144648/?ref_=ext_shr_lnk
