I’m a freelancer who specializes in documentary filmmaking, storytelling, cinematography, and editing, currently based in Brussels. With over a decade of experience, I bring a unique blend of cultural sensitivity, technical expertise, and creative vision to every project I undertake.
What sets me apart is my commitment to exploring the human experience through innovative and resilient filmmaking. Whether crafting a personal, first-person narrative or collaborating on socially significant stories, I strive to create films that resonate deeply with audiences. My diverse background includes directing over 170 diary films in 170 days as part of my ongoing creative experiment, winning a national grant for a celebrated children’s film (Mukuler Jadur Ghora), and earning an Erasmus Mundus Scholarship for the prestigious DocNomads Master’s Program in Documentary Film Direction.
I thrive on connecting with new cultures and audiences, which has led me to work across Bangladesh, Portugal, Hungary, Belgium, and Serbia. I tailor each project with precision, originality, and an understanding of the global documentary landscape.
