Elvina Nevardauskaitė and David Heinemann
Elvina hails from Lithuania, and David from Canada. The two met in London and founded Broken Island Films. Together they have made three short films, a drama and two documentaries. While co-directing, Elvina takes charge of the image, and David the sound. They share a fascination with the ambiguities of human perception, particularly in relation to experiences of the inner life. Their latest film, Voices Apart, was honoured with a Research in Film Award 2020 by the UK-based Arts and Humanities Research Council.
