Bedminster shines in new film
The essence of Bedminster, through its people and places, has been captured in a new film made by Bristol-based artist Colin Moody.
An ode to the unique and colourful neighbourhood south of the river, it features close-up cameo appearances by the cherished and loved residents and business-owners that make the community such a vibrant place to work, rest and play.

“I wanted the video to capture the feeling of walking through Bedminster,” says Moody.
“The beautiful art, quirky characters and locally-run businesses that make it such a fun place to be, any day of the week.
“Bedminster has many layers that all feed off of each other, making it an unbelievable place to spend time. I wanted to capture them all and the joy that they bring to everyone in the area.”
Simon Dicken, Bedminster BID chair added, “We’re proud of the people and businesses that make Bedminster such an amazingly unique place for many people to call home, as well as to work in and visit. Moody has captured the spirit of the community perfectly in this film.
“We’re a hard-working group of business owners, artists, families and long-time residents who have committed to grow Bedminster into what it is today. We hope that this video will entice people from all over the city, and further afield, to come and experience Bedminster’s truly unique and amazing vibe.”
