My name is Zinnini Elkington, and I'm a Danish director, scriptwriter and actress. I tell stories because silence is not an option.

I started out working as an actress in features, shorts and tv-series. But as I gained more experience in front of the camera, I started feeling the urge to tell my own stories and use my voice as an artist. My journey towards filmmaking started at UCLA where I studied scriptwriting, directing and producing. In 2017 I debuted as a director with the pastel-punked teen comedy RAINBOW GIRLS that was ellected for Odense International Film Festival. Then shortly after the premiere, I got admitted to the independent filmschool Super16. My midterm project EN FLIRT was awarded a Robert by the Danish Filmacademy for Best LongFiction/ Animation 2020.

I'm currently working on my graduation film from Super16 and in development with two feature film projects.
