About Anya

I'm an emerging and passionate filmmaker from Russia/Ukraine, with experience as a fringe director bringing bold, unique visions to life. My journey has been shaped by a love for dramas, politically charged narratives, and dark comedies—stories that challenge, provoke, and resonate deeply. I’ve honed my skills in every phase of filmmaking, from meticulous pre-production and on-set coordination to crafting award-winning indie films that have gained recognition at international festivals. A fast learner and proactive team player, I excel at script reading, research, and navigating logistical challenges. I’m now eager to transition into the TV industry, where I can apply my expertise to a new medium while continuing to tell compelling stories.
