Ellie is a ray of sunshine, fizzing with creativity and exuberant charm. She crafts original female-led stories that are bold, funny and beautiful. Her multi-award-winning shorts, ‘Fred Forever’ and ‘Pelicans’ show her unique directorial talent.
Her most recent short, ‘Pragma’ is premiering at Tribeca Film Festival. The film is an off-beat romantic comedy examining dating in a world that is rapidly becoming run by algorithms. Staring Emmy-award-winning Nick Mohammad and Phil Dunster, moments of laugh-out-loud brilliance are interwoven with tender loneliness and artful romantic tension.
Ellie loves: Sneezing
Ellie hates: When your friend is having a surprise birthday party and you categorically cannot tell them, and then you forget how to function in normal discourse.
