Our guest today is Nicky Bentham, who has over twenty year’s experience in the film industry, having studied film production in her native Australia before taking on freelance production roles that eventually led her to producing her own projects and establishing Neon Films in London. 

Recently she produced the thriller LOCKED IN directed by Nour Wazzi. In 2020, saw the release of THE DUKE, starring Academy Award winners Jim Broadbent and Helen Mirren, which launched at Venice and then Telluride, as well as the music feature documentary WHO KILLED THE KLF? 

We are here today, to talk about her Oscar-qualified short film THE AFTER. This film has been creating quite the Oscar buzz and it was listed on Variety magazine’s top 5 for a possible Academy Award nomination.

The After is a gut-wrenching story about a man who grieves and who can’t seem to get over a tragic event that happened in his life.
