Born to a Zambian mother and a Zimbabwean father, and with his childhood and formative years spent across 3 continents - Europe, Africa and Asia - Dillon brings a unique sensibility and heightened cultural sensitivity to his work. A love for analogue photography continues to hone his eye and inform the keen attention to cinematography and composition that typifies his films. His films also often blur the line between narrative and documentary, albeit with a consistently cinematic aesthetic.
