About Inara C.

I am a Japanese-Brazilian documentary filmmaker based in the Netherlands who has been telling nonfiction stories for 12 years. I promote empathy and raise awareness of human rights and environmental issues through stories in which people are protagonists of their own narratives. I am currently working on the feature-length documentary "Where is Nihon?", which was selected by Logan Nonfiction Program and was also a finalist at the Sundance Documentary Fund 2021 and the Berlinale Talents Doc Station 2022. My works include “Yzalú - Rap, Feminism and Blackness”, a CineB Solar winner and finalist at Semana Paulistana do Curta-Metragem (a City Hall of São Paulo’s competition); “Raam”, which won the CineSud’s SHIFT Film Festival Audience Award; and “Volta na Quadra,” winner of the NETLABTV Audience Award and sponsored by Folha de S. Paulo. Through my production company, I created short documentaries, series, video reports and campaign videos for companies and organisations such as Greenpeace, Avaaz, Google, C&A Foundation, Folha de S. Paulo, GOL, Marie Claire, Revista AzMina, Equal Times, Storyhunter, among others. I also produced, filmed and directed the Brazilian stories for the Riot Games’ international documentary series “Legends Rising”, during two seasons. I started my career as a video journalist at Folha de S. Paulo, the largest Brazilian newspaper, and at the publishing companies Globo and Abril — being one of the talents of the training program “Abril Journalism Course”. I received my degree in Social Communication and Journalism from the State University of Londrina in Brazil, studied documentary filmmaking at UnionDocs in New York, and have a specialized degree in cinema and video from Anhembi Morumbi University in Sao Paulo. Moreover I also did other courses focused on impact documentary, cinematography, editing, script writing and entrepreneurship.

About Reinier O.

My home location is The Netherlands, from where I can do a wide range of stories around the globe. News, background stories and human interest are the stories which have my preference.

Prior clients include Discovery Channel, Oxfam, Lonely Planet and more. On a lot of these international trips, I can combine productions, making it more affordable to produce. I have all the necessary equipment to shoot high quality video (and photography). Examples of my work can be seen through the added links, and on my website: www.beyondbordersmedia.com.

About Fat Rat F.

An award-winning documentary production company based in London and Barcelona, Fat Rat Films is a team of multi-talented, multi-disciplinary individuals passionate about the power of storytelling. As a company we travel across the world producing both independent cinematic documentaries, and work for clients with whom we cultivate long lasting and impactful relationships. In all of our work we take a story-led, people-centred approach, seeking to contextualise often complex subjects, and to highlight less obvious narratives. We believe that the beauty of documentary is in its power to engender human empathy; to take audiences on emotional journeys through lives, perspectives and realities they might not have considered before. And we harness that power in every inch of our work. In our 10 years as Fat Rat Films we have produced over 200 films, and have been screened on BBC Newsnight, The Guardian, New York Times, Al Jazeera and internationally at festivals, as well as going viral. Alongside film we also work across a range of documentary storytelling formats including radio documentary, VR, animation and digital longform. We let the stories dictate the format, and are always looking for new ways to surprise, entertain and enlighten our audiences. We invite you to dive into our back catalogue and to explore our website. If you want the story of your organisation to be told in a beautiful and bold way, please get in touch.
