A.V. Rockwell’s feature film debut, A Thousand and One, which she wrote and directed, won the U.S. Dramatic Grand Jury Prize at the 2023 Sundance Film Festival. Starring Teyana Taylor, the film was released theatrically by Focus Features in March 2023 and has fast become a critic favourite.

Ali Brown, PRETTYBIRD President: “I am so excited to have A.V. join the roster. I have been following her work for years and have always been in awe of her ability to tell stories rooted in truth with intensity and intimacy - in both her written and visual language. She is a force in every way who is only beginning to unleash her power.”
