Available to hire
I’m Chara Kli Filolaou, a writer-director-editor with a passion for storytelling across Greece, the UK, and online education. I create intimate character-focused narratives and craft strong visual storytelling through editing and cinematography. My work spans short films, TV series treatments, music videos, and documentary projects, and I thrive in collaborative environments where I can bring ideas from concept to finished piece.
I have a multi-disciplinary background that includes film production, screenwriting, and humanistic counselling. This combination informs a practical, empathetic approach to storytelling and post-production, with a keen eye for pacing, structure, and mood across both Greek and international projects.
