“To me, most filmmaking is a kind of visualization of how people are. The dark, the light, the absurdity of life, all the crazy things, you know? So all of the characters that I've made have been really close to my heart. I guess what I'm interested in is just visualizing a really three-dimensional picture of a person.”

Scottish filmmaker

Lynne Ramsay is a Scottish filmmaker known for a body of work that includes Ratcatcher, Morvern Callar, We Need to Talk About Kevin, You Were Never Really Here, and Die My Love. Her films have brought her numerous accolades. Her work often turns to children, young people, and mothers, and it returns again and again to grief, guilt, death, and what follows after loss. That focus gives her films a distinct emotional weight and an interest in the fragile lives of her characters.
