Selvan has over ten years experience as a director in the Sri Lankan film industry. He has directed many of his own short films, as well as advertisement and documentary-based client work. A highlight is Vili, a story told from the perspective of two Tamil and Singhalese children. He has also been an assistant director on feature films in the Indian film industry. His work is characterised by stepping outside of the traditional divisions that often typify representations of Sri Lanka, delivering stories that bring together the different cultures and places in his homeland. Selvan recently came to Australia as a refugee. After an arduous journey, he has arrived safely and seeks to build a career in the Australian film industry and contribute as best he can to the country that has accepted him.
