About

Charlie Rosser is an award-winning filmmaker and investigative journalist whose work spans humanitarian crises, geopolitical conflict, and environmental crime. His reporting and documentary work have taken him from the frontlines of Ethiopia and Burma to the heart of the Brazilian Amazon, earning support from Catapult Film Fund, the Pulitzer Center, and Media Trust, and publication in Vice News, The Guardian, and The Atlantic.

Alongside his editorial work, Rosser has developed deep experience managing complex international productions. His films often demand long-term access negotiations, high-risk field operations, multi-stakeholder coordination, and meticulous on-the-ground logistics — experience that naturally steers him toward ambitious, high-stakes feature projects.

He also brings a modern understanding of digital storytelling, impact campaigns and audience development. Rosser has produced and strategised high-performing content across YouTube, TikTok, and emerging formats, translating complex global issues into compelling visual narratives for large and diverse online audiences.

Rosser is currently producing RECKONING, a feature documentary set in the Brazilian Amazon that follows a federal prosecutor’s landmark investigation into illegal gold mining and the creation of new legal protections for Indigenous territories. With rare access inside Yanomami territory and federal investigations, the film examines systemic corruption, environmental devastation, and the fight to hold perpetrators accountable. RECKONING has been supported by the Catapult Film Fund and has attracted early interest from key distributors.

His directorial debut, THE QUIET SOLDIER, explores the psychological and spiritual dimensions of guerrilla warfare in Burma’s Karenni State through the lens of a young commander navigating leadership, conflict, and cultural ancestry.

Rosser’s filmmaking is grounded in deep investigative work, disciplined production practice, and a commitment to visual storytelling that prioritizes access, authenticity, and human complexity. His career reflects a consistent focus on stories at the intersection of global politics, human rights, and environmental justice - brought to the screen with both narrative ambition and operational skill.
