Born in a working-class family in Sao Paulo, Brazil. In 2003, Jorge Camarotti moved to Montreal, where he pursued a career as a professional photographer and then as filmmaker. Since his beginnings in filmmaking 10 years ago, Jorge has directed more than a dozen short films, both documentary and fiction, always remaining true to giving voice to the most aggrieved individuals of our society. Jorge wrote and directed Kinship (2019), which was selected in many reputable film festivals such as Palm Springs International, Maryland, Clermont-Ferrand, and Regard which received a nomination at the 2020 Canadian Screen Awards for Best Live-Action. His most recent project Ousmane had its world premiere at TIFF 2021 followed by an international premiere at the prestigious Clermont-Ferrand festival in 2022, and earned the director a second nomination for Best Live-Action at the Canadian Screen Awards 2022.

Photographer Mia Haggi is a seasoned global nomad, moving through countries with the ease of someone who, as a former model, changes outfits. Originally from Tallinn, Estonia, Mia attended art school to study fashion design and photography before pursuing a modelling career — a step that allowed her to traipse around the world and lead her back, eventually, to photography.  Heavily inspired by dreams, darkness and fantasies, the photographer expertly weaves narratives into her imagery, getting close enough to her subjects to decrypt the intensity in their expressions and the vulnerability of their posture. Her unforgettable work leaves a lasting impression on her audience, leading to collaborations with brands like Nike, Adidas, Lulu Lemon, Lane Crawford and more, as well as numerous exhibitions and features worldwide. While it’s hard to pin down her exact location, her Instagram hints that she’s currently bouncing between Bangkok, Lisbon and Hong Kong … Words by Kala Barba-Court
