Elliott Louis McKee is a New Zealand-born, Berlin-based, non-binary filmmaker whose work explores power, identity, toxic love, and obsession — often through the lens of those caught within rigid personal or political systems. A former touring musician and co-founder of the indie-pop band Charity Children, their background in music informs their rhythmic, emotionally driven, and visually rich storytelling. Their short films have screened at over 60 international festivals, including Sheffield DocFest, Rhode Island, Bucheon Fantastic, and Dublin International. Through dreamlike aesthetics and actor-focused direction, Elliott’s work interrogates the rigidities of prescribed masculinity, control, and the emotional complexities of intimacy.
