Othello Khanh (born 22 October 1964 in Paris, France) is a film director, producer and screenwriter. Starting his career in France in the early 1980s, Khanh^[1] ^[2] became one of France's youngest and most successful TV and commercial directors.

Following his desire to become more involved in 'meaningful' films, in 1993 he moved to Southern California and then Mexico where he independently produced and directed Ballads without a Face^[3], an award-winning film documentary about the Zapatista Army of National Liberation uprising in Southern Mexico.

In 1995, Othello returned to his roots in Vietnam where he is the co-founder and the industry-acclaimed creative force behind Créa TV^[4], which has become Vietnam's leading company setting international standards for its commercial and documentary production. Over the last year, Othello has brought together a group of his top-level corporate, finance and entertainment industry contacts in Vietnam and abroad to create his next venture: a company destined to become the driving force in Vietnam's burgeoning feature film industry.^[5]

Othello's first love is directing, and his primary dedication is to the art of storytelling and the craft of filmmaking. Saigon Eclipse^[6] ^[7] ^[8] is a true labor of love for Othello who created the screen play and whose leadership ability and driving creative force has assembled a top team of local and international creative talent that will help him bring his vision through to opening night.
