Will Allen

Will Allen starting making films at the age of thirteen in southern CA. He graduated from Southern Methodist University, in Texas with his film degree. Shortly after college, he ended up living inside a guru-based society for two decades, where he continuously created films about the secret world in which he lived. After finally extricating himself at the age of 44, he decided to use his archives of film footage to tell the complicated 20 year tale of HOLY HELL. Allen's experience is in both directing and editing, which lends a unique vision and story-telling sensibility to his work. His strengths lie in telling personal, complex narratives in an emotionally compelling way. William is an advocate for personal freedom, dedicating his time to education, prevention and self empowerment. Will currently lives in Santa Monica, CA.
