Wahyu Al Mardhani

Wahyu is a highly imaginative filmmaker from Palopo (Sulawesi, Indonesia), with a depth of experience making films in a variety of roles; as a Director, Cinematographer and Editor. From a deep love for the documentary form, he co-founded Makassar-based filmmaking collective 180 Dalam Kota to help develop a broader appreciation for documentary filmmaking in his community. He continues to work closely with young filmmakers in Makassar to help mentor them in their development.

A member of film collective Dogmilk Films (based between Melbourne and Makassar), Wahyu has exhibited his work across Indonesia and Australia and wants to continue building a bridge between film communities in these two countries. In 2020, Wahyu co-founded the cross-cultural and collaborative exchange project Sipakatuo, functioning between South Sulawesi and Australia. The team behind Sipaktuo are currently planning the next phases of the exchange project.
