Regina Bouchehri

Dr. Regina Bouchehri runs the show at LOOKSfilm alongside Gunnar Dedio—the original brain behind the company. Both are absolute history buffs, but Bouchehri brings her own twist to the mix. She’s obsessed with telling stories from every angle possible, always digging for that extra layer most folks would just skip. And she’s got a real thing for international collabs, pulling in voices and perspectives from way outside the usual bubble. What sets her apart? She actually cares about shaking up whose stories get told. Bouchehri’s always out there hunting for new projects that don’t just feature women but are made by and about them, too. It’s not just talk—she’s the kind of producer who’ll champion a wild idea from an up-and-coming filmmaker, especially if it means putting women front and center. You’ll notice her fingerprints on projects that refuse to stick to one point of view or go the safe route. She’s not just ticking boxes, either. There’s a restless energy to her work, like she’s allergic to boring, one-note storytelling. If there’s a way to bring in more voices or push a film into unexpected territory, she’ll find it. Whether it’s a gritty docuseries or a genre-bending feature, Bouchehri’s style is all about depth, diversity, and shaking the dust off old stories. That’s kinda her whole thing—history, but make it unpredictable and inclusive.
