Isadora
CANGUÇU
Hi! I'm a Brazilian director and screenwriter based in London.
My main focus, both in film and music videos, is to develop narratives that transport audiences to new worlds, diving into stories that border on the surreal.
Having lived in different countries during my childhood, multiculturalism is a recurring theme in my work. This is why I chose to explore various Latin cultures to create a new dystopian world in my short film Borders.
With over five years of experience in film, I’ve written and directed 14+ music videos for clients like Universal Music. My work has been screened at festivals internationally, earning awards for both directing and screenwriting.
Currently, I’m developing a new feature film while also producing two new shorts: Gold Rusts in the Tide and Three, Two, One. I look forward to delving deeper into themes of identity and diversity in my projects, and to continuing to grow my craft as I create new work within the UK film and television industry.
