Justin Oakey is an award-winning filmmaker from Newfoundland, where he lives a traditional lifestyle full of hunting, fishing, and storytelling with his wife, children, and animals. Following his Bachelor of Fine Arts in Film Studies from Ryerson University, his award-winning shorts introduced a romantic, atmospheric vision of his home in rural Newfoundland to screens around the world. His claustrophobic micro-budget Riverhead (2016) and tense neo-noir thriller A Fire in the Cold Season (2019) found acclaim at film festivals and nominations at the Canadian Screen Awards.
Also an accomplished editor of film and television, Justin has cut a number of highly anticipated genre titles - such as crime thriller Blood for Dust (2023), and fantasy drama The King Tide (2023).
