A day in the life of… Stephen Frears

July 31, 2025 · By A Rabbit's Foot

Filmmaker Mabel Evans takes us behind the scenes with her friend and legendary writer-director Stephen Frears. Together, they revisit the legacy of My Beautiful Laundrette (1985) and pay a visit to Hanif Kureishi — acclaimed writer and long-time collaborator. Intimate and reflective, this short film offers a candid look at art, friendship, and the rhythms of the everyday.
