Max Kane is a filmmaker of Taiwanese and Jewish descent from West Chester, PA.

His interest in the arts was sparked by his grandparents who took him to movies at their local art deco theater, as well as concerts at the Philadelphia Orchestra. In elementary school, Max’s parents stumbled upon a disturbing short story he had written which resulted in many years of unnecessary therapy.

Max was a nationally ranked tennis player as a junior, and played DI tennis at Bucknell University. He projected 35mm film at Lewisburg’s Campus Theater, and has worked as a PA at the Cannes Film Festival. He is currently a Production Coordinator at Anonymous Content (The Revenant, Mr. Robot, Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind) in Culver City, CA.

Max makes films out of necessity. It’s his way of expressing himself and connecting with people. He has written and directed numerous shorts which have played at dozens of festivals. He strives to tell psychological stories that are raw and personal, but relatable to a wide audience.
