Geoff Arbourne is a British Film Producer and founder of Inside Out Films, an independent company that specialises in film production and television production.[1] He was born in a remote part of Devon, in rural England but now divides his time between England and South Africa.

His films have been shown in over a hundred festivals worldwide and broadcast on BBC Storyville[2], Netflix, Canal+ and Independent Lens[3], among others. His awards include; a News & Documentary Emmy Award in 2018 for Outstanding Politics and Government Documentary,[4] and TROMSØ International Faith in Film Award.

In 2015, he produced one of the first short documentaries, Beitar Jerusalem, for The Guardian online platform[5] which attracted over a million views within the first 24 hours.[6] He then went on to produce the Emmy Award winning feature documentary Forever Pure, supported by the Tribeca Institute[7] and Sundance Institute. Forever Pure had its international premiere at Toronto Film Festival in 2016, played over 100 festivals, winning numerous awards, and became highly popular on BBC Storyville, iTunes and Netflix. Releasing the film caused a significant backlash from many of the Beitar fans, putting the director Maya Zinshtein's life at risk.[8]

Arbourne works closely with award winning producers John Battsek and Robyn Slovo, and is an affiliate member of Producers Alliance for Cinema and Television (Pact).[9]
