Over the course of five features, Brooklyn-based director Tim Sutton has established a contemplative style that combines the stark naturalism of documentary with a sensuous lyricism. His directorial film debut „Pavilion“ describing coming-age story opened the 2012 SXSW festival, winning awards at Prague’s Fresh Film Fest and Torino that same year. The dreamy fragmental portrait of the musician Willis Earl Beale was called „Memphis“ and made its world premiere at the Venice Film Festival. The film was also screened during Karlovy Vary Film Festival in 2014. Tim Sutton is also known for his ability to write very tight and taut scripts and shoot and edit his films in little time.

Thought-provoking and unsettling “Dark Night” - his third feature - was loosely based on “The Dark Knight Rises” movie theatre shooting in Aurora, Colorado in 2014. The cinematographer was French icon Hélène Louvart known for her cooperation with Agnés Varda, Wim Wenders or Alice Rohrwacher.

Tim Sutton uses an observational style of film-making that emphasizes mood, place, and atmosphere over plot or character. It was only with the film „Donnybrook“ (2018) that he approached a more classic narrative. Jamie Bell, known for his acting debut Billy Elliot, plays the lead role of a rough boxer.

In a description of a work of Tim Sutton you can find names of directors like Gus Van Sant, Béla Tarr or Terrence Malick but along with every new film, Tim Sutton continues to prove he’s one of the most fascinating and original, on-the-rise indie filmmakers working today.

Pavilion / USA, 2012, 68 min

Tim Sutton's debut feature, likened to films by Gus Van Sant and Pedro Costa, follows a laconic teenager (Max) who moves from an idyllic lakeside town to his father's home in arid suburban Arizona. With mesmerizing imagery of hot summer bike rides and cool lake-bound dives, Pavilion captures the ephemerality and reverie of youth and the fragility of adolescent friendships. A haunting score by the Sea and Cake's Sam Prekop shadows the storyline, echoing its secrets and shouldering its mysteries.
