For over a decade through her documentary filmmaker work, Georgia has witnessed first hand the human and environmental repercussions of conflict, climate change and plastic pollution in all corners of our planet. These on the ground experiences have embedded within her a deep and unwavering sense of purpose. Founding GroundTruth Productions in 2012 with Sophia, they have since dedicated their lives to capturing human stories from some of the world most challenging environments. Georgia is currently directing and producing KULEANA, a feature documentary set in Hawaiʻi that explores the plastic pollution crisis through the lens of sport, blending science, culture, and cinematic storytelling to inspire change at a time when science and environmental protections are increasingly under threat.

Before founding Groundtruth Productions with Georgia, Sophia worked extensively as a self shooting camerawoman and producer based out of Nairobi, Kenya on projects for the BBC, UN, PBS, CBC, The New York Times and Human Rights Watch among others. Sophia’s work is driven by a dedication to authenticity, ethical storytelling, and the conviction that compelling visuals and narratives have the power to inspire meaningful change. Recently, she has focused on illuminating the fragile beauty and importance of the Arctic regions, exemplified by her short film on glaciers filmed predominantly in Greenland broadcasted on Channel4 in the UK and her upcoming film on the polar explorer Felicity Aston.
