Originally from China, Yuwei is a filmmaker with an MFA degree in narrative directing from University of California, Los Angeles. Her background lies in cognitive science and visual arts, and she is passionate about incorporating what she learned through her past academic training, such as psychology, anthropology, and mix media art, into her filmmaking practice. Most of her works focus on constructing worlds that are stripped down to their essence, allowing the audience to immerse in the story and the internal dilemmas of the characters while questioning and investigating the absurd nature of reality.
