Christopher Holt – Writer/Director // Independent Exec

With over two decades of experience in film and television, Christopher has built a career creating bold, character-driven stories across documentary and scripted drama. His work combines investigative depth with a strong cinematic sensibility, often exploring the human consequences of power, justice, and survival.

Christopher’s films and series have been commissioned by major international broadcasters and platforms including Netflix, BBC, Discovery, Channel 4, and Channel 5. His projects — spanning historical documentaries, true crime, and narrative drama — have earned multiple industry honours including BAFTA nominations, an RTS Award, and a Peabody Award. Christopher’s recent screenplay “27 Cows” won the Austin Film Festival Wonder Fellowship in 2025.

Working across development, writing, and production, Christopher brings a collaborative and visually ambitious approach to storytelling. His work frequently blends rigorous research with emotionally driven narratives, uncovering the personal stories that sit beneath major historical and social events.
Driven by a fascination with complex characters and moral conflict, Christopher continues to develop films that combine scale with intimacy — stories that reveal how ordinary people navigate extraordinary circumstances.
