The Only Way Out Is Through

Kieran Thompson is a filmmaker guided by his deep belief in both community and connection. Through those principles, he has rooted himself firmly in his hometown of Tempe, Arizona, helping to foster a thriving production hub full of friends and colleagues who look to him as a mentor and advocate. As a director, he is compelled by a strong authorial vision, but is first and foremost a generous collaborator. His tender, humanist approach invites the audience to lean in to the silver screen and see themselves inside his stories.
