Tobias Worrall and Isabelle van Hoorn are a filmmaking couple from England (Liverpool) and Holland (Amsterdam). We met 13 years ago backpacking in Cambodia. Since then we’ve worked all types of jobs. We taught English in Thailand, planted trees in Canada, and crewed on sailboats in the Pacific. A few years ago we moved to California to study. Tobias studied filmmaking and Isabelle studied Physics. We tend to occupy opposite sides of the brain but come together creatively when we make films. Tobias was granted several scholarships during his film studies and he also received several awards for his short films in different festivals across the state California and in France. The experience we gained while traveling helps us immensely during production. We are used to things not going to plan and we are super adaptable.

We have only started getting an appreciation for film over the last few years and we can’t wait to explore new borders.

Short Film: Chumbak

On the verge of losing hope of ever returning home, a young heartbroken girl finds an unorthodox way to make an income; but when she finds out her father is about to go flat-broke she must make ends meet before their fate is sealed in the city.
