Overview

Raised on a council estate in Nottinghamshire throughout the 70s and 80s but based in Manchester since 2000, former lecturer in Film and Cultural Studies, Brett Gregory, has been an independent filmmaker since 2005.

As well as short dramas, music videos and commercial promos, his filmography includes a trilogy of non-profit music documentary features: 'Iceland: Beyond Sigur Ros' (2010), 'Manchester: Beyond Oasis' (2012) and 'Liverpool: Beyond The Beatles' (2015).

In turn, his multi-award-winning debut feature film, 'Nobody Loves You and You Don't Deserve to Exist', was released to international acclaim in 2022, and can be described as a semi-autobiographical exploration of masculinity, morality, identity, social class and storytelling in the North of England.

As writer/director his short film adaptation of Franz Kafka's classic parable 'Before the Law' won Best Short Film Director at the FICIMAD Film Festival in Madrid in February 2025.

His latest production is 'Autism and the Arts: Poetry with Peter Street', a 40 minute documentary which examines 76 year old Peter Street's remarkable life as a slaughterman, a gravedigger and a war poet in the north of England.
