Testimonial

“Kirstie is a rare mix of super creative and totally grounded - with an excellent and very useful network of creative collaborators.

On our project she’s been a brilliant listener, turning complex ideas and vague hunches into a succinct and compelling film. She’s incredibly patient and great at working with young people. And perhaps most importantly, she’s a lovely human.”

David Heinemann - Co-Director

The Roots Programme

“Thank YOU Kirstie. You have captured the spirit of Contains Strong Language so well in all your films. You have a sharp eye and a big heart. Thanks so much for all your work over the years . You are very much part of the festival.”
