Yorgo Glynatsis

Yorgo Glynatsis, founder of House of Glynatsis Productions, is a Belgian, Greek and Italian director, writer, producer, actor and creator of the Award Winning lgbtqi+ short film Trigger. Yorgo started his artistic journey at 14 years old acting in theatres in Belgium where he was born. Aspiring for an international career, he moved to London in 2014 and joined the cast of the Immersive project The Den created by the BAFTA-winning director Gbemisola Ikumelo. Following that, he starred in several short films and features ( to be released in 2023). His passion for filmmaking started in 2020 when he wrote scenes for his own acting showreel. Lacking of authentic on screen representation and a desire of using his voice to raise awareness about a past traumatic event, he created the short film Trigger which was nominated in British and International lgbtqi+ festivals and won the award of Best International Film at the Fuse International Film Festival in Kingston ( UK). The film is distributed worldwide by Gonella Productions and is available on Amazon Prime UK and US: the film is part of " These Untold Secrets", a compilation of 5 powerful and impactful lgbtqi+ short films. Yorgo Glynatsis is in pre-production of two short films and a docuseries for Metro charity (UK) as director and producer. 2023
