Ben Makinen - Invidious

Ben Makinen

Ben Makinen is an award-winning Bali based international filmmaker, and the founder of the boutique movie production house, Bmakin Film. His feature films "JazzTown"; & "Who Killed Jazz" - can be seen at international film festivals, network TV and streaming on major platforms.

Ben is the founder of the Bali International AI Film Festival - BIAIFF - now ranked in the World's Top 10 AI Film Festivals!

"I am dedicated to making movies and sharing the stories of unsung heroes. Upon this journey we discover seemingly unusual connections to so many other fields of interest: politics, science, food, jazz in outer space, conspiracy theories... and how these things have personal meanings to us all that often morph over time into unexpected self-discoveries."
