This database is being constantly maintained to bring you biographies and up-to-date filmographies of contemporary British feature film directors.

To be listed in the Directory of Directors, you will need to have directed at least one feature film which has received a UK theatrical release, or which has been in official selection at an FIAPF accredited festival - you can find these highlighted in our Directory of International Film and Video Festivals, or check on the FIAPF website. If you’re a British director who fits the criteria, please email us your filmography including years of production, agent details, awards, website links and a photo of yourself to: arts@britishcouncil.org.

We aim to make this database as comprehensive and accurate as possible but mistakes are always possible. If you're a filmmaker and we've done you an injustice, contact us on the email address above or phone +44 (0)20 7389 3051 and we'll rectify it. No lawyers!

You may use the search box to search on all or part of a director's name, or the title of a film or television programme. For a more specific search, try the 'Advanced search' page.
