Jamie Perault

Jamie Perault is an award-winning director based in Watford with French and Nigerian roots. An alumnus of the National Film & Television School, his graduate documentary Budd, Sweat & Tearz premiered at Tribeca Festival 2024 and received a special mention from the jury. Ever since he picked up a camera at 16 to film a hilariously flawed gangster film starring his teenage friends in ill-fitting suits, he has relentlessly pursued his ambition of directing. With a creative focus on stories that explore race, nationality, and subcultures, Jamie remains committed to bringing often overlooked perspectives to the screen, striving to tell stories that resonate with those who feel like outsiders.
