Antony Hickling was born in South Africa, Johannesburg the son of an Indian father and English mother.

He continues to work as an actor and has lent his voice to many characters in animation for cinema, documentaries, video games and for major advertising brands around the world.

The Trilogy of films : Little Gay Boy, Where Horses Go To Die and Frig marks the end of what Hickling has called the first chapter.

Both Frig and Little Gay Boy were forbidden in France for under - 18s by the Centre national du cinéma et de l'image animée, usually reserved for movies containing simulated sex or extreme violence.

In 2017, he founded the production company H&A Films, and with Down in Paris, he moves towards a more traditional narrative style.
