My name is Aleksandra.

I'm a BAFTA-winning, Polish screenwriter living in London, working across fiction, animation and games. 

About me

I was born and raised in Warsaw, and currently live in London and work internationally. My writing occupies the space between tragedy and comedy – always touching on real, tangible feelings, but often through obscure, slightly ironic scenarios. I’m particularly drawn to outsider stories, queer stories, and characters questioning the reality that surrounds them. 

 

I’m a graduate of The National Film and Television School, where I wrote numerous short films, many of which screened at festivals around the world. My animated short Crab Day received a BAFTA for Best British Short Animation in 2024.

I am also a graduate of the Wajda School's Script Pro and Dok Pro programmes, where I developed my short documentary, In A Knot, which premiered at the Kraków Film Festival in 2021. I’m also the author of a graphic crime novel, El Diablo, financed by the National Centre for Culture Poland. 

 

I am currently developing both live-action and animated projects for film and television.
