Matt Willis-Jones is a British writer-director based in Mexico City. His work blends surreal comedy, science fiction, and genre cinema with a strong visual identity and a deadpan sense of humour. He is the creator of ATOPIA, a series of sci-fi comedies about the search for the “Ultimate Fiction,” and the feature film La Mirada, a female led re-invention of lucha-libre cinema for the present day.
His films explore the collision between fiction and reality, control systems, and the unintended consequences of belief systems.
