The Guardian is inviting readers to submit questions for the British filmmaker Michael Winterbottom, as part of a feature marking the 24th anniversary of his 2002 film 24 Hour Party People.

Winterbottom's work spans several decades and genres, including Cracker, A Cock and Bull Story, Wonderland, Welcome to Sarajevo and The Trip. 24 Hour Party People, one of his best-known films, chronicles Manchester's music scene from the Sex Pistols' 1976 gig at the Lesser Free Trade Hall through Factory Records, Joy Division, New Order and the Madchester era of bands including Happy Mondays.

The film starred Paddy Considine, Shirley Henderson, Andy Serkis and John Simm, along with Steve Coogan in the role of the late broadcaster and Factory Records boss Tony Wilson.

Winterbottom began his career in television in the late 1980s, directing documentaries and episodes of series including Boon and Cracker, before making his feature debut with 1995's Butterfly Kiss. His subsequent films included 1996's Jude, the 1997 Bosnian war drama Welcome to Sarajevo, 1999's Wonderland and 2000's The Claim, followed later by 9 Songs, the political docudrama The Road to Guantánamo and the 2010 thriller The Killer Inside Me.

Readers are being invited to submit questions ahead of a planned feature with Winterbottom, though further details on the format or publication date were not specified.
