The Corner Shop

Writer/Director Dunlop is one of the industry’s most gifted storytellers and a highlight of Campaign’s annual top ten Directors. With a particular affinity for cinematic realism, her work is richly detailed, layered with authenticity, beauty and often intrigue. Breaking down stereotypes since when she was one of only 3 percent of female directors in the industry, today Sara is the UK ambassador for Free The Work, choosing timely, empowering work such as Nike Victory Swim and The RAF’s No Time For Clichés. Her commercials work has been recognised by Cannes Lions, British Arrows, D&AD, Creative Circle and LIA. She is currently in development writing several scripted feature properties dealing with various themes around identity from coming-of-age to a futuristic, teenage girl gang.
