Actress and producer Diana Childs has reflected on producing her first film in the United Kingdom in 2016 as her film Mirrors prepares to premiere on YouTube following a private screening at the British Council.
Taking to her Instagram page on Thursday, she shared throwback pictures alongside a post about the movie.
Reflecting, she wrote, “2016 I produced my first movie in the UK. My first time producing ever.. I did it scared but I did it anyway.
“I learnt so much from that production. 10 years later I bring to you Mirrors, still scared but doing it anyway
“1st slide: photoshoot day with the cast
2nd: myself and the lead actor
3rd: cast and crew
4th: Mirrors airs today at 6pm only on Diana Childs TV on YouTube.”
The film stars only Diana Childs and Kunle Remi, focusing entirely on the intricacies of their characters’ lives. Speaking about her inspiration for the story, Childs had shared her fascination with family dynamics and human relationships.
“What interests me in the story is my passion for exploring family dynamics—how couples relate with each other, how people’s minds work, and how two strangers can decide to create an imperfect life and make it perfect for themselves,” she said.
Childs also explained her decision to cast Kunle Remi, citing their working relationship and on screen chemistry.
“I chose Kunle Remi because we already have a good working relationship. In terms of chemistry, we are just perfect,” she noted.
Diana Childs’ film Mirrors held a private premiere screening at the British Council in Lagos on January 5, 2025.
