BIOGRAPHIE

Nika Belianina is an award-winning writer/director and a photographer, with the background in lighting and props. A DGC member, she’s a WIDC alumnae and MTV Paramount mentorship recipient. Nika’s films have screened across 25 countries and at over 80 film festivals such as Tribeca, Sheffield, Cinefest Sudbury and Boston Sci-fi. Her directing credits include a final block of the crime docuseries “Fear Thy Neighbor” (Discovery), a dirty dozen of short films, music videos and documentaries. In her narrative work, Nika likes to explore alternative realities, be it in a character’s imagination (Crazy Lovn’), or a full on anti-utopia and fantasy (Butterflies of Trip City, The Last Mermaids). She sprinkles magical realism when possible and loves working in comedies. Her upcoming project is a DGC and Pixomondo Unreal Engine production of “Paradox”, short sci-fi comedy. Nika currently develops a female-centric comedy and a magical realism mini-series.
