Биография

Thomas Mendolia is a director, working in Los Angeles, CA. Born in Brooklyn, New York, he was moved to a small town in North Carolina at a very young age. His father insisted on staying true to their ways and brought him up with a strong, working-class, Italian American upbringing. Being from “The North” but raised in “The South”, Thomas never quite fit into either world; this positioned him as an observer, which would later benefit him as a storyteller. He took to filmmaking at a young age as a means of self-expression, focusing on magical realism to explore the reality and familial relationships around him. As he continues to explore his craft, he looks to find new ways to share his internal emotional journeys and making them universal to the world through filmmaking.
