About

Amanda Hardcastle is a filmmaker in love with capturing the awe and dreamy beauty of humanity and nature. Which is a thread that connects the details to the encompassing feelings that her stories offer.

She has worked in many different creative disciplines including film, theater, and dance. Her most recent work, Liv Laf Luv inc., is a short dramatic comedy about a young woman wanting to follow in her father’s footsteps and take over the family business only to find out that he has been mixed up in a fraudulent crime.

Her style joins together long, soulful shots, organic imagery, and poetic dialogue that drips and settles like layers of wax. Amanda doesn’t just tell pretty stories, she explores the rich, inner worlds of characters with a mindful and grounded perspective.
