# Ben Anthony

Filmmaker Ben Anthony specialises in observational documentaries, from Al-Jazeera’s newsroom during the 2003 Gulf War to the Women’s Institute. His [diary from our Jan/Feb 2008 issue](http://newhumanist.org.uk/1688) is based on his stay with a cult in New Mexico, while filming The End of the World Cult for Channel 4. Visit the [New Humanist blog](http://blog.newhumanist.org.uk/2007/12/end-of-world-cult-debate-continues.html) to see what the cult’s “messiah” thought of the film.
