Harjinder Grewal.

Growing up between Indian and British cultures in the UK fostered an early curiosity about identity, belonging and the spaces in between.  

Amidst a reoccurring state of daydreaming, this curiosity found its expression through filmmaking. 

After graduating in Film & Television, further director training continued at the London Film School and the National Film and Television School.

Film and video work spans commissioned films and support from Universal Music Group, BBC, Channel 4, EON Productions, PIAS, Arts Council England, Spanish Television and various independent labels, with exhibits at the National Geographic Society and Whitechapel Gallery in London, Aicon Gallery in New York, Dubai's Art Park and Pakistan's National Art Gallery in addition to a nomination for the Satyajit Ray Short Film Award.
