Billie Melissa

I’m an entertainment journalist from London, UK, having started my own site in 2018 and eventually branching out to freelancing for other publications. As a filmmaker myself, I aim to amplify independent films from underrepresented filmmakers, with a compassionate lens. I am interested in the way we connect through storytelling and love narratives that derive from real life experience.

Previously I have covered the 2021 Sundance Film Festival, where I was included in their Press Inclusion Initiative, as well as SXSW, Human Rights Watch, London, Raindance and Venice Film Festivals
