Uma Balan (a) Uma Senthoor is an independent filmmaker and mobile photographer who turns everyday life into cinema. His work emerges from personal experiences, solitary observations, and the emotional landscapes of ordinary people.

Drawn to stories shaped by a single individual's situation and mindset, he explores themes of memory, loneliness, routine, identity, and resilience. With a documentary eye and a deeply personal approach, he captures fragments of daily life that often go unnoticed, transforming them into intimate visual narratives.

Working primarily through mobile photography and independent filmmaking, Uma believes that powerful cinema does not require grand events—it can be found in a quiet moment, a familiar street, or a passing thought. His creative journey is driven by a desire to document life as it is and uncover the extraordinary within the ordinary.
