I am Gabrielė Urbonaitė (born in 1993, Vilnius, Lithuania), writer, director and editor currently based in Los Angeles. I started making short films at the age of 14. After a year of Philosophy studies in Paris, France, I moved to Boston, MA to study Film Production at Emerson College. I earned my B.F.A. with Honors in 2016. I was selected to Berlinale Talent Campus in 2012, Odense Talent Camp in 2013, and to Berlinale Talents Short Film Station in 2015. I am a recipient of Princess Grace Film Award and “Silver Crane” National Lithuanian Film Award for Best Short Film, as well as a member of Lithuanian Academy of Cinema (LiKA).
In my films, I explore themes of identity, migration, self-discovery, and alienation. Besides making and watching films, I enjoy traveling, reading, swimming, biking, and yoga. I am fluent in Lithuanian, English, and French.
