JESS LEE
Jess Lee (she/her) is a director, screenwriter and script supervisor based in Montréal, Canada.
Her short film Sweet Affliction screened at festivals internationally, including Montréal's Image + Nation LGBTQ film festival where it won the Prix du Public award. Her experimental films and music videos have also been showcased internationally, garnering over 28,000 views. She is currently developing her first feature.
Jess Lee is invested in creating expansive character studies that offer complicated stories of human error. With a propensity toward maximalism, Lee’s films are off kilter, awkwardly funny and intimately connected.
