Based in London, Jessica Bishopp is an artist and director known for her fascination with subcultures and myth. She’s created work for NOWNESS, Dazed & Confused, British Film Institute (BFI) and Doc Society, to name a few, and her films have been screened around the world to great acclaim. We were drawn to her short documentary “Wargames” – an unusual and ambitious film about table-top gamers, the battles they wage and how it questions our attitudes to conflict, combat and companionship.
