Film Director
Joshua's latest film, a feature length documentary on the internationally renowned New Zealand writer Dame Fiona Kidman, The House Within, premiered in sold out sessions at the New Zealand International Film Festival in 2024 and will be released theatrically in 2025. In 2017 he wrote and directed his first short film A Sentimental Thought which screened in the shorts corner of the Cannes Film Festival in 2018. For the next few years he lived between Italy and France developing and writing feature length films. At the beginning of 2020 he completed production on his feature film debut In Passing. He is currently adapting an award-winning NZ novel, looking for financing for a screenplay for a film set in France against the backdrop of the fashion industry and is in post-production on a contemporary adaptation of The Garden Party by Katherine Mansfield titled Our Party.
