Bea Santos

Biography

Bea is a Canadian actor and filmmaker with a decade of experience on set. Variety once described her as having “radiant, real-world energy” and now she makes movies about other worlds.

Informed largely by the folktales told by her late Spanish mother and her Twainian upbringing among the lakes and trees of a small Muskoka town, Bea’s own films fuse magical realism and lo-fi sci-fi with themes of death, loss, escape and ultimately, hope.
