Director.

Jordi M. Carter (he/him/his) is a Caribbean-British director from Streatham, South London.

His work explores how people inherit, resist, and remake systems of power, belonging, and memory.

Centring Black British, West Indian and diasporic lives, his work seeks to reveal the human complexity beneath social labels, political narratives and inherited structures, with a focus on the ways individuals and communities imagine themselves beyond the systems that shape them.
