Niv Hachlili

Director, Researcher, Writer

I am a journalist, screenwriter, and director originally from Jerusalem, having moved to London in 2020. For over two decades, I have contributed to the development of stories and engaged in collaborations with musicians, directors, journalists, and writers on issues close to home: occupation, violence, oppression and discrimination; protest and organising; social housing; environmental destruction. My work spans research, writing, and directing documentary, experimental, and fiction films.
