Sarah Keo
(she/they)
Sarah Keo is a Cambodian-American director and producer based in Denver, Colorado. After a childhood spent patiently waiting for her wizarding school letter to arrive and searching for magical worlds within wardrobes, Sarah realized that her passion was in storytelling. It wasn't until she worked in artist support programs at the Sundance Institute, however, that she truly discovered the power that filmmaking holds to evoke empathy and compassion. Now, Sarah is inspired to tell diverse, human-centered stories that shift the cultural narrative and help shine a light on a better path forward for ourselves and our planet. Her current project Chasing Time, a short climate film that she co-directed with Emmy-winning filmmaker Jeff Orlowski-Yang, is world premiering at Hot Docs.
Sarah is also an Associate Producer at Exposure Labs, the film and impact production company behind The Social Dilemma, Chasing Coral, and Chasing Ice. In her role, she supports the team's mission of developing and sharing stories that address big societal challenges and that inspire hope and action for collective solutions.
