Harry Wynn is a filmmaker who makes bold, character-driven stories that connect with wide audiences. Working across documentary, television and digital, he’s drawn to projects where identity, politics, culture and belonging collide.

He wrote and directed Queer Aotearoa: We’ve Always Been Here (TVNZ/TVNZ+, 2025), exploring New Zealand’s LGBTQ+ history through a millennial lens. His recent films include Shred (2022), following a teenage bodybuilder’s all-consuming pursuit of greatness; Young & Hooked on Chemsex (2021), a candid look at methamphetamine’s impact on Auckland’s gay hookup scene; and Three Ticks Chlöe (2020), charting politician Chlöe Swarbrick’s fight against the political establishment.

Alongside his directing work, Harry has developed the documentary adaptation of Rockin’ The Kremlin with Emmy Award-winning filmmaker Matt Rudge. He is also developing several premium projects, including Ed and Louise: A Forgotten Love Story, in collaboration with the Hillary family, and the series, Help! I’m an Accidental Gay Icon, with WildBear Entertainment.

Harry is currently the in-house development executive at Great Southern Studios, working across premium documentary and factual projects. As a producer, his credits include Out There (Loading Docs), a short documentary about a clandestine group searching for hope in extraterrestrial phenomena, and the NZ Film Commission-funded Fresh Shorts film, Rice Run.
