Director Biography - Rena Riffel

Rena Riffel began her career as an actress landing roles in David Lynch's Mulholland Dr. and other notable projects, including Showgirls by Paul Verhoeven. Returning to her filmmaking roots, she is now writing, directing, editing, and starring in her own art films which have gathered critical acclaim. She is compared to Cindy Sherman for her self-portraiture work but in moving images, critics regard her as an auteur. Breaking out of stereotypical molds, Rena is an artist creating bold and uncompromising work. She intentionally creates feature length films that are challenging to the viewer in order to help open preconceived boundaries in film.

Director Statement

It is a meditation of creativity allowing the story and images to come to me and then I let that lead me. I stay open to what then is revealed and I capture what I feel is meant to be captured on a form that is more concrete, be it paper, fabrics, digital, film, or sound recorders, or other concrete forms such as clay.
