Lilly Dickinson is a transgender director, writer, and film music composer from western Massachusetts. Since 2011 Dickinson has been writing, directing, and scoring micro budget DIY Short and Feature Length films that explore existential questions, mental health, and identity. With metaphoric imagery and voyeuristic cinematography, Dickinson’s abstract narratives mix the disorienting and harsh world of nonlinear storytelling with vignettes of vulnerability and intimacy. Dickinson’s first feature film The Making of a Deathbed premiered at the New Hampshire Film Festival in 2022 and was awarded outstanding achievement in the Experimental Feature category at the 2023 Massachusetts Independent Film Festival. Dickinson graduated with a Bachelors of Fine Arts in Film and Video from Massachusetts College of Art and Design in 2017
