Ondi Timoner is an internationally acclaimed filmmaker who has the rare distinction of winning the U.S. Grand Jury Prize at Sundance twice: for DIG! (2004), a film about the collision of art and commerce through the love/hate relationship between the Brian Jonestown Massacre and the Dandy Warhols, and for WE LIVE IN PUBLIC, a film about a social experiment which proves the loss of intimacy and privacy with the advent of the Internet (2009). Both films were acquired by New York's MoMA for its permanent collection.

Since then, Ondi has created award-winning films and series such as JOIN US, about mind control; COOL IT about solutions to climate change; BRAND: A Second Coming, about the transformation of comedian disruptor Russell Brand; the 10-hour series JUNGLETOWN, about "the world's most sustainable modern town in remote Panama; COMING CLEAN, about solutions to the opioid crisis; and the dramatic feature MAPPLETHORPE starring Matt Smith, which she also wrote, produced, and edited.

Her most personal film, LAST FLIGHT HOME, about her father Eli Timoner's extraordinary life and intentional death, premiered at Sundance & Telluride in 2022, winning Best Documentary at Woodstock and Dallas Int'l FF, and the Critics Award at Key West FF before making the Shortlist for the 95th Academy Awards. Ondi was recently awarded the prestigious Visionary Award for Documentary Excellence at DOC NYC and the Impact Award at Hamptons DocFest.

Her newest film THE NEW AMERICANS takes audiences into the intersection of finance, media, and extremism, uncovering the connection between the January 6th Insurrection and the Gamestop Squeeze to explore the explosive ramifications of our digital future and premiered at SXSW in 2023. Ondi is an active member of the Academy of Motion Pictures Arts & Sciences, Directors Guild of America, Producers Guild of America, Writers Guild of America, International Documentary Association, Film Independent, Women in Film, and Film Fatales.
