Director Biography

Emily Railsback is an award-winning director, producer, and screenwriter with an MFA from Columbia College Chicago. After making a handful of narrative short films and music videos, Emily started the production company Burnt Sugar Productions in 2015, which seeks to elevate women’s voices and preserve culture and place. Emily’s first documentary feature film “Our Blood Is Wine,” premiered at the Berlinale International Film Festival (2018), followed by a US theatrical and international release. Emily’s directing style blends fiction with improvisation and cinéma vérité filming techniques to create a sense of place, which can be seen in her films “American Parent” (BFI Flare), and her upcoming roadtrip comedy “Road Trip to Totality”, which is currently in post-production.
