Trevor Mowchun

Trevor Mowchun is an Assistant Professor of film studies and production at the University of Florida. He works as both a film scholar and filmmaker, exploring the philosophical dimensions of film in theoretical and creative ways. His first experimental dramatic feature film World to Come (2015) is a poetic investigation into the repressed unconscious of a religious community ravaged by tragedy. He is currently preparing his second feature called From a Great Height. The film follows a historian who goes in search of his ancestral past and utilizes techniques which seek to visualize the fantasies, omissions and emotional intensities of memory. As a film scholar, Trevor has published numerous essays on the philosophy of film.
