Biography
Mohsin Zavi (born July 15, 2005) is a Pakistani independent filmmaker. He debuted with The Bag (2023), the first short film released under GlowSynth Films, a production company he founded. Originally launched as The Solid Filmmakers, the company was later rebranded as GlowSynth Films.
He followed this with several short films, including The Bag: Part Two (2023), The Joker (2023), Echoes of Choices (2024), and Fractured Reflections (2024). His latest short film, Raah (2025), continues this streak of ambitious indie projects, and his next short, Invalor, is currently in post-production. In mid-2025, he also directed and edited the music video “Soormi” for singer-songwriter Amjad Mirani, blending his cinematic style with musical storytelling.
On all of these projects, Zavi has maintained a hands-on approach—writing, directing, editing, and often serving as cinematographer—which gives his films a cohesive, tension-driven visual style. His work often explores moral and psychological complexity. He cites directors such as Christopher Nolan, Denis Villeneuve, David Fincher, and Paul Thomas Anderson as influences.
His films construct atmospheric, psychologically layered narratives that explore themes of guilt, identity, and survival through claustrophobic framing, fractured timelines, and morally ambiguous characters.
