Harry Wynn is a filmmaker whose work spans documentary, television, and digital platforms. He is drawn to stories that examine the intersections of personal identity, politics, culture, and belonging.
Harry wrote and directed the documentary series Queer Aotearoa: We’ve Always Been Here (TVNZ/TVNZ+, 2025), exploring New Zealand’s LGBTQ+ history through a millennial lens. His recent work includes Shred (2022), a documentary following a teenage bodybuilder’s all-encompassing pursuit of greatness; Young & Hooked on Chemsex (2021), a candid look at the impact of methamphetamine on Auckland’s gay hookup scene; and Three Ticks Chlöe (2020), about dynamic millennial politician Chlöe Swarbrick’s fight against the political establishment.
As a producer, Harry’s credits include Out There (Loading Docs, 2024), a short documentary about a clandestine group searching for hope in extraterrestrial phenomena, and the Fresh Shorts film, Rice Run (NZ Film Commission, 2025).
