Australia-based, Kiwi Director Paul Nevison's work mixes real-life events with cinematic fictional elements to create evocative retellings of true stories, often giving a voice to marginalised and disadvantaged groups. Filmmaking has taken him to over 40 countries where he's developed a style steeped in the complexities of human emotion, utilising intimate cinematic portraits to uncover truths both personal and universal.
Paul was a Gold Screen winner at Cannes Lions' Young Director Award in 2020 with his film Nitachez / I Will Dance. Described by Film Shortage as a vivid visual experience with some absolutely breath-taking photography," Paul's film Volta was also awarded a YDA Gold Screen and Gold at Ciclope Africa in 2019.
Paul has recently completed his first feature documentary "Evil Good" set for release in 2021, which documents the story of a Phoenix Vice Detective who battles his own family in the Mexican Cartels.
