BIOGRAPHIE

Discover the captivating journey of Dakota Daulby, a resilient and award-winning filmmaker from Vancouver, British Columbia. Born with Cerebral Palsy, Dakota fearlessly transforms life's challenges into powerful storytelling, infusing his films with a unique and heartfelt perspective. With acclaimed acting roles in "Mayans MC," "Billy The Kid," "The 100," and more, Dakota's impressive credits have earned praise for compelling performances. His unwavering passion for storytelling resonates deeply, offering a genuine and thrilling exploration of life's complexities. As co-creator of the 72 “Phrike” horror film festival and his company “Vesperia Films”, Dakota elevates diverse voices and fosters fresh talent in the industry. Grateful for recognition as a Leo Award and Union of British Columbia's 'Best Emerging Performer’ winner, he remains focused on creating authentic and meaningful stories that profoundly connect with people. The concept of Vance is deeply personal to me, as it originated from my own cancer diagnosis. It's a story that explores the delicate balance between life and death, and the meaning that can be found in both. Our film features a unique hero, a depressed vampire, who grapples with this question in a way that is both poignant and thought-provoking. Through Vance's journey, we hope to inspire audiences to reflect on their own lives and the value that can be found in every moment.
