Description

Paul Bryers (° 1945, Liverpool) is a writer and filmmaker, specialising in factually-based drama and documentary. He was studied at the Southamp-ton University where he took combined honours in modern history, politics and economics. Became a trainee on the IPC journalist’s training scheme and worked on national newspapers in London, Belfast and Dublin before moving into television as a reporter for ITV and then as a free-lance repor-ter, producer and director, covering conflicts in Africa, the Middle East and South America.

His current work includes the Nathan Peake novels set during the Wars of the French Revolution written under the name Seth Hunter. He was the winner of a British Arts Council Award for Best First Novel and In a Pig’s Ear was named as one of the Guardian’s Six Best Novels of the Year.

Paul Bryers has written and directed many factually-based dramas for tele-vision, radio and theatre and adapted and directed films by outstanding playwrights such as Arthur Miller and Michael Bulgakov.

Paul Bryers made the TV-film Incident In Judea, which only tells the biblical story of The Master and Margarita. It was broadcasted by Channel 4 on March 31, 1991. The film was the first real drama Paul Bryers ever direc-ted and he told me it's still one of the best experiences he’s had as a director.

To my knowledge, it hasn't been released on DVD or VHS casette.
