Biography

Lexee Gordoun is a Writer, Director and Producer, born and raised in Sydney, Australia. She graduated with a bachelor degree in Film and TV Production at JMC Academy in 2021. Lexee film's tend to share a deep focus on characters and their psychology. Her stories are centred around the vulnerabilities of men or female strength - shedding light on the unspoken difficulties and creating a voice for the unheard with a slightly hyper-real tone. Lexee creates films as a toast to the "outsiders and the mis-understood." Lexee believes that a director-actor relationship is not just a professional relationship, but rather a very intimate and sensitive relationship that must be handled with care and allow for a safe place for actors to share their vulnerabilities and emotions. This enhances their performances, building a relationship on the foundation of trust and respect.

AFIN recognition

From the Judges, on SASHA'S GAME (2024)

From the Judges, on SASHA'S GAME

Set during history's darkest hour, this short revisits the wartime sacrifices of people forced into desperate strategies to survive under fascist rule. The period world is realised with real conviction, its production and costume design lending the drama a lived-in authenticity, and the panel found the whole cast wholly believable in their roles. It struck them as remarkably well realised, a period piece carried by assured direction, evocative cinematography, and a score that gives the emotion room to land.
