Mollie Moore is a filmmaker and visual artist born and raised in South London and is now based in New York City.
Mollie began her practice from a young age within theatre and live performance. Her work bridges theatrical and experimental methodologies with non-fiction storytelling. She examines memory, belonging and new futures through stories that lie somewhere between reality and imagination. Focusing on themes of queerness, migration and water, new ways of holding the delicate web of grief in today’s world are explored and our ability to dream against the invisible mechanisms of empire. Shared authorship, and long-term relationships with her collaborators are at the core of projects.
Mollie’s work has screened at Academy qualifying festivals such as Camden International, DOC NYC & Big Sky International Film Festival for her directorial debut ‘A Word Away’ which won a ‘Best Director’ award. She has also created work for globally renowned brands from Fendi, Nowness to System Magazine and has screened at the San Francisco Dance Film Festival amongst others.
Most recently Mollie worked with Sofia Coppola on the documentary ‘Marc by Sofia’ as an editor which premiered at the 82nd Venice Biennale and The MoMA. Additionally, she is directing her first feature length project based in Vieques, Puerto Rico, which is paired with an active environmental conservation initiative working to protect the sacred tree La Ceiba de Vieques, alongside her dear friend and collaborator Ardelle Ferrer-Negretti. Her newly completed film ‘Everything I Am or Have Since Become’, an experimental short examining queer safety, water and movement gained support from Dance on Camera and is beginning its journey in festivals later this year.
