Erik Nuding is a filmmaker raised between London, England and a remote farm in Co. Sligo, Ireland. His work draws attention to the interdependence of life across different species and seeks to break down human-nature, subject-object dualism. His most recent film, An Ornithologist’s Daughter (2021) had its World Premiere at Visions Du Réel and its Irish Premiere at DocsIreland. Erik’s current work-in-progress, With Their Backs to The Sky, is supported by Sundance, Sandbox films and the Buffett Institute for Climate Crisis and Media Arts. It explores the risk of disease spillover from bats to humans in the degraded forests of Madagascar, Africa.
