JOÃO CARMO

João Carmo, originally from Lisbon, Portugal, spent his teenage years in London, where the city's diverse culture profoundly influenced him. Initially pursuing media psychology, João soon realised his true passion lay in capturing life through visual storytelling. His work, characterised by empathy, melancholy, serenity, and brief moments of joy, reflects his deep emotional connection to the world around him.
João's films explore the nuances and boundaries of his transgressive youth and generation—people searching for freedom and identity. His unique perspective and multicultural background shape his compelling narratives, offering a powerful lens into the complexities of modern life.
