About

Ajay Mittal · Director
Ajay Mittal on set

I'm drawn to real people and the emotion beneath the surface of their lives, told like cinema.

In a world of frictionless, synthetic images, I care about the friction of something real, and what a story leaves behind.

Ajay Mittal is a director based in Surrey, UK, with experience creating films for global brands. His work moves between commercial polish and intimate documentary, always drawn to the same thing: real people, real feeling, and the bonds that words rarely hold. That instinct led to Heart Horse, his cinematic portrait of a rider and the one horse she can still ride.

Heart Horse

2026 Short documentary 8:44

In the hills above Alicante, a young Swedish rider saddles the one horse she has left. A portrait of a bond built over nine years, and of what survives when everything else is given up.

Commissions

A film of the one that matters most.

Some stories deserve more than a phone in the rain. I make bespoke cinematic films for the rider and the horse who changed everything, for the story worth keeping the way it felt. A single, lasting piece, shot and cut like the films above.
