Having worked with Nowness, the BBC, Tate, MTV and Netflix, Toby Amies is a British filmmaker and photographer known for his distinctive approach to storytelling that often explores unconventional themes and characters.  Amies is recognized for his offbeat, immersive style that often delves into subcultures and the lives of eccentric individuals. One of his notable recent works is "In the Court of the Crimson King" (2022), a documentary about the legendary progressive rock band King Crimson. The film provides a rare behind-the-scenes look at the band, particularly its enigmatic leader Robert Fripp, and explores the dynamics, tensions, and creative processes that have kept the band relevant for over 50 years. The documentary was well-received for its insightful and humorous approach, appealing to both fans of the band and those unfamiliar with their music.
