Orion Eshel

Orion is a 19 year old writer and director living in Costa Rica. As a young teenager aspiring to be a professional surfer, he began to make YouTube videos about his life which led him to discover his passion for filmmaking. In the last 5 years he's moved from YouTube to music videos and small commercials, and now into writing and directing films. Orion was given the amazing gift of growing up surrounded and deeply connected to nature, and that connection is something he wants to explore and show in his films. He's always found himself to be drawn to gentleness and delicateness in people and in the things around him, and this beautiful fragility in life can hopefully be seen in who he is and what he does.
