Director at AFIN

Biography

Kai (he/him) is a Meanjin/Brisbane based filmmaker who is passionate about bringing the stories and experiences of underrepresented people to the screen. As a queer, transgender man himself, Kai is specifically interested in merging the creative arts with activism, using storytelling to draw attention to the unique issues faced by minority groups - this concept inspired him to begin developing Uncovered Lives. “This topic is very close to my heart as it affects both me and many of my loved ones, and as a filmmaker this is something I know I can do to help my community.” Uncovered Lives is the start of what Kai hopes will be a long career in film, focusing on directing, editing, and screenwriting.
