Biography


Danial Lum-Young is an aspiring filmmaker and screenwriter from Trinbagon. He graduated from the University of the West Indies, St Augustine campus, in 2018, where he obtained his Bachelor of Arts in Film Production and Film Studies. Danial's passion for cinema arose when he saw the movie X-Men (2000) for the first time; noted the symbolic nature of the X-Men as representations of those who are discriminated against and persecuted in today's world. Danial realized that cinema was a medium in which storytellers could articulate ideas about people and bring about change. For Danial, he is hopeful that his future includes building a solid body of work that demonstrates these representations of human nature from a deeply Trinbagonian and Caribbean perspective.
