Liz Smith is a documentary filmmaker but she often finds herself straying into mediums other than film. The Dinner Puzzle is a case in point, but what unites all her projects is a desire to investigate and tell non-fiction stories.

Liz met Richard in 2018 at the launch of  Angela V. John’s Rocking the Boat (now just out in paperback) when discussing project ideas relating to the life of  Lady Rhondda and the rest, as they say,  is history – or rather, is this new venture.

“I’ve always had a strong interest in the feminist movement and its shifting forms over the decades, which is why I was attracted to this project. I was able to combine my digital media storytelling skills with Richard’s impressive research skills to bring the dinner to life. As far back as I can remember I’ve always enjoyed puzzling, but it would be fair to say this turned into one of the biggest puzzles I have ever tackled!”

Liz has recently completed the feature documentary I Am Gen Z.

She is also the creator and host of What’s Going On In Your Head?, a series of live events that explore the secret inner workings of the mind through live performance and discussion.
