FACTOTIM pictures was founded in 2022 by director & producer Jaydon Martin.
Jaydon Martin is a multi-disciplinary artist and filmmaker whose practice draws upon the exploration of maligned cultures, mundane existence and spiritual modernity. Working class expression is at the forefront of his work. Creating a sincere portrait of a community often discarded or politically commandeered.
By using unconventional narrative structures Martin draws a direct line between reality and the subconscious in pursuit of an ecstatic truth. Blending documentary with fiction to mine the universal longing for human connection. Pushing his cinematic language towards an emotionally charged aesthetic that absorbs the primal eye.
Martin’s films have screened internationally at festivals, including at International Film Festival Rotterdam, Warsaw International Film Festival, São Paulo International Film Festival, Sydney Film Festival & Melbourne International Film Festival and has received a Special Jury Prize at IFFR and the Black Magic Innovation Award at MIFF. His work has been written about in publications including The Guardian, Variety, Screen Daily, Criterion, Sight and Sound's Weekly Film Bulletin & The Monthly.
