Biography of the director

Khin Warso comes from Mawlamyine in Myanmar’s Mon State. Having studied journalism at the National Management College, she first worked as a reporter for an IT journal in Yangon before joining YFS in 2014 where she provided the soundtrack for the documentary The Crocodile Creek. Her first film as a director was Slate for which she won the 2015 Goethe-Institut Ruby Documentary Award. Khin Warso earned her first credit as producer on the YFS ‘true fictions’ production Book Lover. She has since lent her production talent to a number of projects by YFS-alumni, including Lin Hnin Aye’s film about a Lisu shaman, Sound of the Spirits, and a graduation film project by fellow-student Seint Yamone Htoo with the working title The Village by the Sea.
