Mannequin

David Teixeira is a filmmaker who was born in France and has lived most of his life in Portugal. In 2012 he co-created a documentary for TV about migration and the idea of comfort for the people who travel called “HABITAT” that premiered on national television in Portugal and was officially selected on a film festival in Spain.
Since then he migrated to France to live in Paris. In 2016 he decided to live in Bordeaux – where he was born – and he started to write, produce & direct his first horror short-film “Girls Night“. “Girls Night” has been selected to some film festivals such as Video Nasty Film Festival in Seattle, Stockholm Independent Film Festival and Midsummer Scream Film Festival in LA and has received the honourable mention at the London x4 Seasonal Shortfilm Festival. David finished working on its sequel “Girls Night 2” which came out this year on Halloween. With the success of both shorts, David edited both shorts together bringing life to « Girls Night - Anthology » which is now available online on Amazon Prime.
After working with his friend Lea N’Kaoua for her demo reel as a circus dancer, he decided to work again with her on a horror project called « Ouroboros » which came alive on a collaborative state with N’Kaoua. The horror short was shot in two days and was an intensive and rewarding experience.
After "Ouroboros", David and Lea teamed up again for "Mannequin" (body horror experience).
