Emmanuel Hessler

Director at ELAN

Fascinated by the power of storytelling, Emmanuel seeks out emotionally provocative narratives that will incite viewers to dream, act, grow, and understand the world around us. After graduating from Communications Studies at Concordia University and producing a decade’s worth of projects through Bis Films, Emmanuel has focussed on Quebec independent cinema since 2016. He collaborated on several feature films as production manager and line producer, most notably Matthew Rankin’s The Twentieth Century and Eisha Marjara’s Venus. His most recent project was the Imperfect Asian podcast co-created with Laura Nhem and he is currently producing Mattias Graham’s second short film Bleach.
