Born and raised in London Margot Bowman uses film to build bridges. Accessible spaces of possibility and power that connect us to ourselves and each other. 

Inspired by her home city's legacy of club culture; creativity, freedom of expression and community set the tone for her visually striking approach. 

Embracing the chaos and imperfection of our lives with a perspective informed by dyslexia and a determination to find new kinds of storytelling. 

Using the medium to explore identity and belonging through this lens her internationally recognised work (CICLOPE, EMMY’s, D&AD, UKVMAs, BRITISH ARROWS, CANNES LIONS) spans documentary, music video, commercial and narrative filmmaking.  

Her commercial clients include NIKE, SIMPLE, HEY GIRLS, and CARHART with narrative/documentary commissions from the likes of CHANNEL 4, THE TATE, DAZED and NOWNESS.

Bowman is a Royal Society of the Arts Fellow and a member of the PBS / POV cohort at the 2022 Wyncot Fellowship. 

COMING HOME, her recent documentary short (World Premiere at SXSW 22) was recognised by this year's IDA Documentary Awards and will be broadcast in the 35th season of PBS’ iconic POV series.
