Elisa is a Canadian/Corsican filmmaker based in Toronto. Trained in photography, then visual studies and now working in narrative fiction, she raises questions about belonging to a gender, a family, a lineage - two lineages. Her photography and video installations have made her the recipient of prizes, grants and awards, including the 2018 Scotiabank New Generation Award. Elisa has exhibited in galleries such as the National Gallery of Canada, Corkin Gallery, the Art Museum and the Art Gallery of Mississauga. Her first short narrative “On Either Side“ (2021) premiered at the Vancouver International Film Festival. She recently completed her second short narrative “Aïda non plus” and is in the pre-production of her first narrative feature film "Tandis que lui (Whereas He)" with producer Isabelle Deluce.
