Director Biography - Samoqueira Manuel

With some short films and independent clips to my credit, I try to professionalize myself in directing.

I first worked as a director and assistant director on various shootings. Then I tried the acting process, incorporating a small theater troupe to deepen writing and staging.

For about ten years now, I have been developing short and feature-length projects, including Le Père fouettard (drama), StyxCrow (thriller), Plus près de la lune (drama) and Back to School (fantasy).
