Adam Shaw

Adam Shaw, the visual poet of the ordinary, was born in 1972 in Sydney, Australia. He started his directorial journey in 1996 and has since been known for his works primarily in drama and comedy, with his most famous films including "The Paper Chase" and "Under the Harbour Bridge", which garnered him several awards, though none at the major film festivals. Shaw's authorial style is characterised by his ability to imbue everyday life with extraordinary depth, creating a unique blend of humour and heartfelt emotion. From the heart, Shaw is not just a filmmaker, but a storyteller who captures the essence of the human condition through his lens, making the ordinary seem extraordinary.
