Lin Que Ayoung is a writer, director, producer, and editor, who started her career as a Hip Hop Performer and Lyricist. After three major record deals, the growing misogyny and homophobia caused her to go back to school with the hope of transforming her verbal poetry into visual lyricism.
Upon completing her classes in the prestigious graduate film program at NYU Tisch School of the Arts, Lin Que's a two-time winner of the BAFTA-NY Scholarship, the winner of the 2018 New York Women in Film & Television Scholarship, and the recipient of NYU's 2018 First Run Film Festival Craft Award for the Faculty Commendaton for Directing for her film, La Soñadora.
Lin Que's films attest that she is fascinated with the inner-workings of the unconscious mind, riveted by stories that emulate true life with complex plots and multi-dimensional characters, and intrigued by unconventional ways of approaching all aspects of filmmaking.
