Sonya Dukhon

Sonya Dukhon

Sonya Dukhon is an award-winning director working across films, commercials, music videos, and experimental art projects. She has collaborated with global brands and musicians, combining cinematic storytelling with visually driven, emotionally charged imagery. She directed one of the world’s first iPhone-shot music videos for Eurovision winner Manizha, and has long explored the intersection of AI and cinematic language. As co-creator of Elderberry (2026), Sonya bridges classical film direction with AI image generation — treating prompting as a form of directing: giving notes, adjusting tone, and guiding the image until it serves the story.
