Bui Nguyen Dieu An is a Vietnamese director and scriptwriter with nearly a decade of
experience in the commercial industry. In 2024, her debut short film, kitty_kitty_katxxx, won
the Panorama Best Generation Award at the Tirana International Film Festival in Tirana,
Albania. Her work delves into the complexities of womanhood in modern society, exploring
themes such as the generational gaps between women in a family, the evolving definition of
what it means to be a woman, and the societal norms, expectations, and roles imposed on
Asian women—alongside the struggles to challenge these constraints.
An is currently working on her second short film, Anthology of Women: Vol.2, which serves as
a continuation of the themes explored in her first film.
To An, being a woman means embodying contradictions and magic simultaneously - an angel, a
witch, a siren, a mermaid, a vampire, a unicorn, a dragon, a fury, a fairy godmother, a
shapeshifter. Women, in her view, are ever-evolving and ever-defying.
