Juliana Ayeni-Stevens is a Black-British Filmmaker based in London, England.

She started her journey aspiring to become an actress but shortly after finishing university threw herself into a full-time career within talent management. Going onto to various roles within the arts and entertainment industry. Juliana began producing in 2016 and completed a course in producing at Raindance, she has gone on to produce two short films.

As a storyteller, I am interested in creating powerful and thought-provoking narratives that will not only entertain the viewer, but educate them as well. The themes and issues presented in a story like this must be told.

Her love for writing allows her to tell stories that capture the real human experience. Her love for films began in her early years watching a wide range of films from drama to comedy to documentaries.

She has a great love for Latin American Cinema.

This is her directorial debut.
