Will Niava
Splitting his time between West Africa, the US , and Canada, Will Niava's work is as expansive as his background. Combining a striking and raw visual aesthetic with visceral storytelling, Niava's films are provocative and immersive cinematic experiences.
With his short film, Zoo, Niava explores the tenuousness of social order. His Dynamic camerawork and rhythmic editing mirror the emotional state of his characters. Thrilling, captivating, and unnerving, Zoo is an enthralling and timely commentary on power, alienation, and how we treat our fellow man.
Will has garnered numerous awards from over 80 international film festivals, as well as a spot on the prestigious Criterion Collection. In addition to his directing a series for MTV (Shuga Babi) , Will has co-writen a feature film with Oscar nominated director Jeremy Comte.
