I’m Lozaine Pereira, a screenwriter and storyteller specialising in character-driven, psychologically grounded narratives across film and stage. My work explores contemporary human experiences, from domestic violence to intergenerational mentorship, often weaving symbolic imagery and subtleties into emotionally honest storytelling. I’ve studied and worked across Sri Lanka and the UK, most recently earning an MA in Filmmaking from the University for the Creative Arts, and I’m passionate about developing projects from concept to screen, with a collaborative and research-driven approach. Beyond writing, I’ve coordinated production, ghostwritten non-fiction, and crafted marketing copy, which has sharpened my ability to shape tone, pacing, and audience engagement. Survivor testimonials underpin my commitment to authentic voice, and I enjoy collaborating with writers, directors, and producers to bring complex, character-rich stories to life.
