Daria Fedas is an independent filmmaker and multidisciplinary artist currently living in Saint Petersburg Russia.
In her work she uses the mixture of different elements: visual image, music, poetry. The style is mostly influenced by experimental cinema, lo-fi music genre, silent movies aesthetics and theatre.
Daria Fedas has been producing and directing videos independently for the last eight years after graduating from film school Filmosofía in Spain. She also studied acting for theatre and film for several years while being a member of a theatre group in Saint Petersburg, Russia.
In the short film “Nightmares” I paid my homage to the genre of classic horror in both cinema and literature.
My intention was to create the atmosphere of a classic horror story starting with the poem on which the film is based. At some point though the project started to “live its own life” and went a bit beyond.
