Films of Record
In 1979, Roger Graef started Films of Record, a documentary production company that specialises in tackling difficult subjects, and securing access to previously impenetrable institutions. In the first months of 2010, it produced Julien Temple's Requiem for Detroit? (BBC), Ricardo Pollack's three-part series on medical ethics Great Ormond Street (TV series) (BBC), and a series on family discord Who Needs Fathers? (BBC). Other productions include the BAFTA-nominated Kids in Care, a Panorama Special, The Trouble with Pirates on the impact of Somali piracy; and "Amnesty! When They Are All Free". Its recent output includes "The Truth About Adoption"; which was BAFTA and BAFTA Craft nominated in 2012; and the second series of Great Ormond Street.
Films of Record is now part of factual media group Ten Alps.
