Los Angeles based filmmaker Jack Henry Robbins might be new to the industry, but this 26 year old is already causing a stir.

Having landed his first directorial debut in 2014 documentary film Storied Streets, which explores homelessness across America by telling the stories of those who live it every day, the University of Southern California graduate has followed in the famous footsteps of his Academy Award winner actress mum Susan Sarandon - who works as an executive producer on the project - and father actor Tim Robbins. So it's clear to see talent and ambition runs in the family. Having since worked on film Opening Night last year, which tells the story of a dysfunctional theatre department's disastrous production of A Midsummer Night's Dream, and with more projects in the pipeline, there is just no stopping this talented newcomer.
