Peter Strickland started making short films on Super 8 and 16 mm in the early &#8217;90s. After directing his adaptation of Kafka&#8217;s Metamorphosis for Reading&#8217;s Progress Theatre in 1992, he went on to direct a short film called Bubblegum (starring Warhol superstar Holly Woodlawn). After a long hiatus, making culinary soundscapes with The Sonic Catering Band, he returned to film in the early part of this century. His first feature film, Katalin Varga (starring Hilda Péter) was funded from an inheritance and shot and edited on a budget of £25,000. The Transylvanian tragedy led to funding from the British film industry. He made the Milano-Dorking sonic anguish of Berberian Sound Studio (starring Toby Jones) followed in 2012, followed by the dominant/submissive romance The Duke of Burgundy (starring Sidse Babett Knudsen). In the past few years, he has made several radio plays and a concert film for Björk, co-directed with Nick Fenton, and his fourth feature, the Thames Valley January Sales nightmare In Fabric (starring Marianne Jean-Baptiste). His new short film, <a href="https://mubi.com/films/cold-meridian" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Cold Meridian</a>, is now streaming on MUBI. (Image by Rob Entwistle.)
