P&I - Director Bio
Ece is a filmmaker who has made a number of short films and music videos. She has participated in various national and international film projects. Her short film Ten (2012) was screened and awarded in several film festivals internationally. Since 2016, she has been working on her first feature-length documentary film: Meeting Jim.
Meeting Jim
The captivating story of Jim Haynes, a networker supreme whose open Sunday dinners in Paris are legendary and whose journey from the US to Edinburgh, London and Paris saw him make contacts and friends wherever he travelled. In one lovely scene he runs through his contact books, all geographically linked. On the way, he inspired all those who met him. This charismatic man – now in his eighties – has been a regular at Edinburgh’s festivals for years and he continues to charm and encourage those who cross his path.
