Award winning documentary & drama production

BEGINNINGS...

Wildcat Films was founded by cameraman David Baillie and journalist Jacqui Marson. The company began with covering the Troubles in Northern Ireland, and next went undercover in the then Soviet Union to report on political dissidents.

Wildcat went on to pioneer the role of independent companies in supplying exclusive frontline news from the world's most remote and dangerous locations.

Our ground breaking reports from war zones in Nicaragua, South Sudan, Western Sahara and Kashmir led to the establishment of the Channel 4 Film Fund which continues to support independent filmmakers  today.
