FEATURE FILMS
Swede Caroline
Directors: Brook Driver & FINN BRUCE
WRITER: BROOK DRIVER
“In this hilarious British mockumentary, we follow Caroline, a competitive giant vegetable grower, as she readies herself for the National Annual Big-Veg Championships. However, Caroline finds her life turned upside down when her prized marrow plants are stolen and the two private detectives she’s hired are kidnapped.
Recreating the gloriously mundane mockumentary style of The Office, Brook Driver and Finn Bruce’s debut feature captures the insularity of British obsession. Swede Caroline combines the rural rage of Mike Leigh’s Nuts In May and Ben Wheatley’s Sightseers with a touch of Chris Morris absurdism; and reminds us that there’s nothing funnier than a British person on the edge of losing it.”

Summer 2018 - The Documentary #ItsComingHome
SHORT DOC
Brook wrote and edited a documentary that parodied the style of Adam Curtis’ cinematic, philosophical films. Only his was basically just about the summer that England lost the plot.
'Dog Fondlers'
INVESTIGATING ONLINE GROOMING
Brook created a very hard hitting documentary about people who fondle dogs, otherwise known as ‘tail chasers’ or ‘pedigree chums’, and the vigilante groups who are out to hunt them down. The documentary was described by PETA as “not very accurate or relevant”.
