Jason Mullis is an award-winning director and producer with over twenty years of experience across photography, film production, and advertising. His work focuses on character-driven independent cinema and intimate psychological storytelling.
His debut feature film Her Tango premiered on Amazon Prime and built a dedicated following among tango enthusiasts and independent film audiences. His second feature film, Myth of the Ghost Kingdom, is available for purchase and rental on Amazon and Apple TV.
Jason shares his inspiration for writing and directing "Myth of the Ghost Kingdom," How the story was driven by the fact that many people are uncovering major family secrets through genealogy research, and he wanted to create a respectful portrayal of the adoptee experience. Jason acknowledged that while the film industry often exploits adoption stories rather than accurately representing them, he aimed to tell an authentic story centered on the adoptee experience.
