Ant Timpson

Ant Timpson’s longtime love affair with movies — especially the wild and 'incredibly strange' ones — has seen him launch film festivals, and New Zealand's biggest filmmaking contest, 48Hours. Timpson has helped produce a run of features, from Housebound to The ABCs of Death. In 2019 he directed acclaimed, genre-twisting feature Come to Daddy, starring Elijah Wood.
