I'm Sophie van Bree (born 1995), a documentary filmmaker and director based in the Netherlands and Scotland. My life revolves around storytelling: telling, capturing, and feeling. Besides work, I make music, dance, write, take photos, enjoy traveling, and explore nature as much as possible.

 

I'm fascinated by the gap between someone's external world and what's going on inside. I often focus on sensitive and relatable themes in society, such as mental health and the vulnerabilities of being human. As a documentary filmmaker, I easily connect with people from all backgrounds.

 

With a strong sense of story, an ethical approach, my love of writing, international experience in storytelling and a cinematic approach, I create intimate, layered films and other media that open conversations.
