An award-winning Australian film writer and director based in New York, who has created films across the globe, driven by a passion to uncover truth and cultivate empathy through storytelling.

We chat about Julia's recent projects: "A Scale for Hurt" a short film which recently premiered online on Filmshortage and will take part in the Andromeda Film Festival 2021, Cift Festival of Toronto 2021 ad the 9th International Video Poetry Film Festival 2021; "Unspoken" - a short documentary she co-directed with Emma Zurcher-Long and Geneva Peschka (insta: @gneva) and was recently accepted into the Slamdance 2021 Unstoppable program, highlighting disabled creators. And lastly, the filmed-in-quarantine "And the People," a film that combined a collection of readings in 10 languages with user-generated content from over 20 countries. Made in collaboration with writer Kitty O'Meara, based on her poem that begins, "And the people stayed home", creatives around the world collaborated to make a film to celebrate solidarity in the age of isolation.
