Camilla Demichelis

Camilla is a French, Italian, and Mexican film director and producer. In her work, she likes to explore the female figure in society and the topic of empowerment and obsession. She enjoys complicated, quixotic, and underdog characters, and often ponders with the metaphor of invisibility both in fiction and documentary. For her work as a producer, she was the recipient of the Youth Award Medal in Arts and Culture, the most prestigious decoration given by the Mexican head of state. She was also selected by leading Mexican magazine Expansion as one of the 30 Leaders in their 30s in Mexico. She received the Emerging Content Creator scholarship from the National Association of Latino Independent Producers and she was selected as one of the mentees in their Diverse Woman in Media program. She has worked in feature films, documentaries, short films as well as commercials and music videos with names such as Javier Bardem, Eugenio Caballero, Cristina Gallego, Humberto Zurita, etc. She has directed commercials for brands like Walmart, Sam’s Club, Emperador (Pepsico), and Heineken and worked as a producer and/or first assistant director for brands like Nivea, Samsung, and Telcel. She directed the second unit for Latin grammy nominated Amar y Vivir. Muse is Camilla's first fiction short film. She is currently writing a female led crime and adventure series and is in pre-production of her first feature documentary, which was based on a short film selected by PROCINE Mexico, Women in Film Mexico, Filminlatino, and the international Mobile Film Fest.
