Director Biography - Matteen Afshin Saremi

My name is Matteen Saremi. I'm an aspiring director who loves telling stories that allow audiences to escape and see different worlds through different lenses. I am an avid lover of sci-fi, action, and comedy. You'll see that a lot of my stories and films take this adoration and implement it in the very fabric of the narrative. I find that the best films leave a mark on you way after you've seen them, and that's what I aim to do.
