Women Excel Ayu Logan
Ayu Logan
Ayu is a documentary filmmaker who is driven to tell stories about immigration, culture and social justice. She has experience in all aspects of production with a focus on writing, directing and editing. Her short documentary Where I Came From follows the story of an undocumented woman who after being raised in New York, has returned to Mexico, a country she never knew. It focuses on the human aspect of a topic that is far too often portrayed as political. She is currently working with an all-female crew on a feature-length documentary about the refugee experience and asylum seeking process in the US. She has a B.A. in Film, TV and Media Studies and Spanish from the University of Auckland, New Zealand and graduated from the Documentary Filmmaking Conservatory at New York Film Academy in Los Angeles.
