PART-TIME FILMMAKING, 2010
Marcus released Papadopoulos & Sons theatrically in the UK himself in April 2013, grossing £40k on the opening weekend on 13 Cineworld screens, with no posters, press ads or TV campaigns. It has been acquired by the BBC for free TV and alongside sales agent 7&7 and Movie Partnership, it is selling well globally. NuVision released the film in Germany in June 2013 on 100 screens. Marcus says: “This is proof that there is demand for independent films, and that the producer can get there direct.”

I LOVED MET FILM SCHOOL BECAUSE IT WAS A PRACTICAL FILMMAKING COURSE, BEING THROWN IN THE DEEP END AND MEETING NEW FRIENDS. ANDY PRODROMOU AND PAULYNE ANTONIOU, BOTH OF WHOM I MET THERE, ENDED UP WORKING ON PAPADOPOULOS & SONS. THE COURSE GAVE ME A HUGE BOOST IN CONFIDENCE.
