About Us
Rosebud Films was founded by British filmmaker Abdullah Khan.
A BFI Academy alumnus, Khan began his career as a runner on productions including 1917, Star Wars and Fast & Furious, before joining Neal Street Productions, where he worked as an assistant across the development and production of film, theatre and television. In 2022, Khan was named on the Forbes 30 Under 30 list.
As a writer-director, his short films include Find the Light (2022), starring George MacKay; Path to Ecstasy (2023), starring Olivier Award winner Michael Jibson alongside Louis Serkis; and Screening Room (2025), filmed at London’s iconic Prince Charles Cinema. His work has screened internationally and at BIFA-qualifying festivals across the UK and abroad. His work blends intimate emotional realism with heightened subjectivity and exploring themes of memory, displacement and the search for transcendence.
Rosebud Films is currently developing a slate of feature films, including The Life Within, a story spanning London and rural Morocco; Far from Home, a coming-of-age drama set in northern Pakistan; and The Search, a folk-horror tragedy set during the English Civil War.
