Director Biography - Mandeep Singh

Director - Writer - Editor
28, Mandeep Singh became Man Deep Lion, for art.

I am a factory worker who works hard to bring bread home for my family. However, I have always had a passion for cinema and filmmaking. It nourishes my desire to live and allows me to explore life's philosophical essence. I consider myself a realist who loves to learn and experience new things.

In 2016, I started to learn about cinema, and it has been a journey of self-discovery ever since. I believe that life has two phases: learning and teaching, and film direction is the perfect way to bring these two phases together.

Over time, I have honed my skills and created a variety of content across different genres. From short films to music videos, from docu-films to talk-show pilots, I have done it all. Each project has been an opportunity for me to grow and explore my creativity.

Director Statement

The Empty Page is the feeling of self-abandonment, like a writer's block that is hating a blank page because he doesn't know how to continue his story, a feeling I've always felt when I came home after a bad day at work in the factory.
That empty day when you come home from work and think you've done everything wrong in life, is the moment when you have nothing good to tell, not even to yourself.
This Short talks about how to recognize that you are enslaved by yourself and how to confront that, to reach freedom.
