WelcomeHi, thanks for stopping by! Have a cup of tea :)
Here you can find some of the work I've done, from short stories about hedgehogs gone rogue to films about food, lots of food... About me - I'm a Eurasian writer based in London, though with ever-restless feet. If you like, you can find out a little bit more here or see what I've been up to over here. |

The Feast, 2018
A dystopian fairytale Directed by Gaëlle Mourre Starring Katie Leung, Joan Walker, Jonathon Kemp Produced by Fat Red Bird Author, Co-writer, Associate Producer Screenings and Q&As include: - Laemmle NoHo 7 for LA Shorts Fest (LA, USA) - The Ditchley Foundation's 'Festival of Ideas', co-hosted by Oxford University's Balliol College, on the theme of 'Future Human: Future Communities' (Ditchley Park, UK) - Prince Charles Cinema for Euro Shorts International Film Festival (London, UK) - Ciné Lumière at the French Cultural Institute (London, UK) "Based on a dystopian fairy tale by L. P. Lee, the story showcases the talents of Harry Potter star, Katie Leung, who... finds herself in that all-too-familiar Faustian bargain of the powerless, where to achieve the agency over her own destiny not afforded her by birthright, class, gender, colour, sexuality etc., she has to risk losing something of her sense of self, agency or dignity. The Feast literally makes an eye-popping, mouth-watering meal of this metaphor - it’s quite remarkable to watch" - Michelle Olley, Phace Mag "...a sumptuous mystery of the gluttonous kind, with an appetising premise and a rich aesthetic. Not only this, the performances are simply delicious... The nature of the story touches upon numerous enduring themes of innocence, greed, ambition and more, coalescing into an immersive viewing experience that will leave you swirling" - Chris Olson, UK Film Review |

"Conjures Gothic literature, fairytale and East Asian cultural heritage”
- KATRINA RUSSELL, THE CONTENT JOURNAL, UK
"There is something to be said for stories that leave images swimming in your psyche long after the last word has been read. Oxford-based writer L. P. Lee has that knack."
