Liam Hartelli, a young and ambitious director hailing from North Carolina, his works are often experimental and or in the style of guerrilla filmmaking. Growing up Hartelli was nurtured into a love for cinema by his dear father, via going to the local cinema, watching old DVDs, or simply chatting about the current releases. At a young age, Hartelli was enthralled by the works of Akira Kurosawa, Shunji Iwai, Kevin Smith, Yorgos Lanthimos, and many, many more.

Hartelli's films are led by his strong passion for the craft, and his unforgiving love of cinema.
