A. Sayeeda Moreno
Working with intimacy and without flinching, the work of director and screenwriter, A. Sayeeda Moreno catches the moment, and spark of inhalation just before everything dissipates. Her work draws from her upbringing in the mythology of New York City and the bohemian communities that came into her home and shaped her worldview. Moreno is a Sundance Women in Finance, Tribeca All Access, and 2026 Film Independent Amplifier fellow and SFFilm Society Hearst Grant recipient. She is developing the coming-of-age lesbian romance Out in the Dunes inspired by her Provincetown summers and memoir-based essay film An Ambivalent Daughter. Moreno earned her MFA from NYU Tisch as a dean’s fellow and teaches film production and screenwriting at Bard College.
