Brendan Davis is an American writer, director, producer, and composer based in Paris, and the Founder of Malkuth Film - developing a slate of feature films that span multiple genres and international markets. With a strong background in independent production and extensive experience working across cultures, he specializes in character-driven stories that explore the complexities of human relationships, ambition, and identity.

Davis has been involved in films premiering, competing, or winning at Sundance HK, Toronto, Berlin, and other festivals. In 2013, he produced the first Los Angeles-based season of the Chinese TV hit Jia Pian You Yue (The Best), featuring Stan Lee, Justin Lin, M. Night Shyamalan, and others. Also active in documentary production, Davis wrote and directed the documentary Yibin: An Elemental Journey for CCTV in China, and co-wrote and produced the feature documentary Crazyhot. Most recently, Davis directed proof-of-concept short films for features in development, including Dirt Track Honeymoon, a raunchy southern musical comedy, as well as The Unwinding - a 25-minute proof-of-concept short for the feature of the same name, which has garnered roughly three-quarters of a million views on YouTube and an exceptionally strong audience response, with hundreds of comments praising the film and calling for the feature adaptation.

In addition to his projects at Malkuth Film, Davis is producing My Favorite Season, a feature film set in the world of Paris fashion. Davis is also in development on The Bishop’s Man, adapted from Lynden MacIntyre’s best-selling novel, with acclaimed filmmaker Babak Payami (752 Is Not A Number, Secret Ballot) attached to direct in Nova Scotia.

Davis’s work aims to balance artistic vision with commercial appeal, and his ability to bridge different markets and storytelling styles has allowed him to build strategic partnerships in the US, the UK, Canada, China, Italy, France, New Zealand, and beyond.
