Thursday, Jul. 30 2026, 7:15

• Oriel Pe’er is an award-winning director, producer, cinematographer, and editor whose work centers intimate, character-driven storytelling and the lives of people navigating identity, visibility, and cultural change. He is the director and producer of A Deeper Love: The Story of Miss Peppermint, an award-winning feature documentary filmed across nearly a decade. Through long-term observational access, the film follows Peppermint’s journey from New York nightlife to RuPaul’s Drag Race, Broadway, and public advocacy, while exploring the private emotional realities beneath her growing visibility. Having lived and worked in New York for more than 16 years, Pe’er developed a close connection to the city’s queer creative communities and nightlife culture. His filmmaking approach combines visual intimacy, trust, and sustained collaboration, allowing subjects to be represented with complexity rather than reduced to symbols or headlines. Oriel is the founder of The Llama Studio and continues to develop documentary and visual projects rooted in human connection, cultural memory, and underrepresented perspectives.
