About
After a long time researching profiles, I came to a conclusion: I prefer the simple ones, with an up-to-date picture (though not necessarily faithful to reality) and a small touch of questionable humor.
With that said, I’m Mariana Borga, or just Mari, a former creative based in São Paulo and currently working as film director in a production company.
This portfolio is a collection of the things I’m most proud of being part in those past 17 years (my 5 years old twins are not included).
I hope you like it.

Recognition
I love winning awards at the same measure that I constantly tell my ego they are not that important. So here are some relevant awards that I’ve been given, though I don’t remember when or how many (Festivals’ websites will help me with that answer if you really need me to tell you that).
