DIRECTOR BIOGRAPHY - Dina Rezaei
I’ve always been passionate about storytelling, which is what first drew me to the world of cinema. My journey started with screenwriting, and that love for writing led me to pursue a Bachelor's degree in the field. Over time, I found myself diving deeper into filmmaking, exploring directing techniques and gaining hands-on experience. Wanting to build on that foundation, I pursued a Master’s degree in Cinema, where I balanced the theoretical and practical sides of the craft. Since 2018, I’ve been part of various student projects, taking on roles like assistant director, set manager, and script supervisor. These experiences taught me so much about the collaborative nature of filmmaking and helped shape my perspective as a filmmaker. "Conex" is my first short film, and I couldn’t be more excited that it’s been selected for the Clermont-Ferrand International Short Film Festival. It’s an incredible honor to have my debut work showcased at such a prestigious event, especially with its world premiere happening there. This moment feels like a huge milestone, and I’m so grateful to share it with audiences. Filmography: First film.
