Julia Tonon is a Brazilian director known for building intimate, poetic worlds from the seemingly ordinary. Her work emerges from a careful gaze toward small gestures, quiet landscapes, and subtle emotions, finding depth, mystery, and beauty in what often goes unnoticed.

She has directed projects for Havaianas, Armani, Nubank, Soho House, Aragana, Zerezes, C&A, and Monte Carlo Joias, among others. Her independent film work includes the Alice Trilogy, a series of three short films selected for Mostra Mulher de Cinema and recognized at the Cinematography & Photography Awards.

Her short film Late on the Planet was released by NOWNESS and featured on Directors’ Library. The film won Best Film at the Hombres Videopoetry Award in Italy and was also awarded at the Cinematography & Photography Awards. It has been selected for festivals including Cadence Video Poetry Festival (USA), Midwest Video Poetry Fest (USA), Latino & Latin American Film Festival, Short to the Point (Romania), Detour – Low-Budget & Experimental Cinema (Portugal), Zebra Poetry Film Festival, Mitreo Film Festival (Italy), and Poetry Film Festival, and was a finalist at Onirica Film Festival and Sinédoque.

Represented as a commercial director by Santa Transmedia (Brazil) and Lagence (Europe).
