Abel Rubinstein is a writer-director represented by Casarotto Ramsay and Associates. His latest work includes the award-winning mini-series “Life In Love”, available on ITV hub, and Bifa-longlisted “Mars”, a short film starring “Heartstopper’s” Yasmin Finney with story by musician Yungblud. After its premiere at BFI London Film Festival and Tribeca Film Festival, NME gave the film four stars - “Director Abel Rubinstein makes every second of Mars’ 20-minute runtime count, creating a lived-in world that feels real, despite the flourishes of surreal fantasy”. Abel’s trilogy “Life In Love” was also screened at LFF. His past films include “Dungarees”, “Fuck The Boxes”, and “Wink”, working with Creative England, BBC, ICA, and Roundhouse. Screening at festivals including Frameline, Outfest, PÖFF, Edinburgh, Tampere, LFF, Flare, and over 60+ more. Abel is currently in funded development with Teen Club and the BFI of an original queer coming-of-age TV series. He is also developing his debut feature film “Gumballs”, his most personal film yet.

Abel has been inspired by character-driven directors such as Sebastian Schipper (Victoria) and Lukas Moodysson (We Are The Best!). Abel workshops with his actors to achieve realist performances. His unique British storytelling has tackled topics around gender, sexuality, love and friendship.
