Hannah Papacek Harper

Writer and a director, developing several projects on the subject of ecology, intertwining science with art.

Graduated in Aesthetics and Cinema Practice, from the universities of La Sorbonne Pantheon, and La Universidad de Lima, in 2015, Hannah Papacek Harper has been directing since 2019. Initially a Steadicamer, she started by telling stories through the moving image. Now both a writer and a director, she is developing several projects on the subject of ecology, intertwining science with art. The other side of her research is geared toward displacement, identity and transgeneration memory. Profoundly interested in communication, transmission and sensorial approaches to film, she continually searches for new empathetic ways to touch a general public. Her roots are in experimental video and from 2021 to 2023, two of her experimental short films, Just Listen To The Storm and Vegetative, travelled festivals worldwide. Lost For Words is her documentary feature debut.
