Secrets and jealousy bubble to the surface

UK Film Council, Film London and Channel 4 present a 59 film.

A family portrait session goes horribly wrong as secrets and jealousy bubble to the surface under the photographer’s watchful gaze.

A Family Portrait was written and directed by associate artist of Fifty Nine Productions, Joseph Pierce, and develops the live action rotoscope technique employed on the award-winning short, Stand Up.

Selected for over 30 international festivals, and winner of 8 awards, A Family Portrait was also long-listed for a 2011 Academy Award.
