Ilyas Sheikh

"Behind the camera. In front of it. Writing the next scene in his head."

Ilyas wrote, directed, shot, edited, costumed and hair-and-makeup'd FORKS — then stepped in front of the lens to play Sheikh. Smart, creative, and quietly obsessive about every frame.

The Legend

Favourite films, in no particular order: The Departed, The Lord of the Rings, Inglourious Basterds, The Dark Knight, The Prestige, The Godfather, Gladiator, and Shutter Island. You can feel each of them somewhere in FORKS — the paranoia, the misdirection, the patient stare before a knife comes out.
