Filmmaker. Advocate. Change Maker.
Amanda Kasmira “Kazzy” Cryer is a filmmaker, advocate, and Champion for the Unseen — known for centering voices overlooked by systems. With over two decades in the media industry, she built her Hollywood foundation at Roy Lee's Vertigo Entertainment — whose slate included The Departed, The Lego Movie, It, and Doctor Sleep — before dedicating herself to independent films driven by urgency rather than spectacle.
Her directorial debut, Living UNDONE (2024), won the Grand Jury Award and Best Proof of Concept at the ETHOS Film Festival, the Dublin International Film Awards, and the ATL DOC Jury Award. As CEO of The Rewired Collective and Global Ambassador for GetBundi, she works with UN leaders, Nobel laureates, and NGO founders to create media that transcends division.
