2024.7 Showreel
Serguté Mariam
My pure love for the art of story telling is what has driven my passion for acting. I am grateful to have worked on some amazing professional productions with talented directors and actors; I hope to work on many more.
It's a true honour to have been cast in Jellyfish and Lobster the multi award winning short film by Director/ Writer Yasmin Afifi and Producer Elizabeth Rufai, that won Best Short Film at BAFTA. It's my greatest achievement on this journey and I hope it sets a new foundation for the direction I would like to tailor my career.
I currently train with Identity School of Acting and I am thoroughly enjoying the journey and the growth and refinement of my work and talent thus far and can't wait to flex my new muscle on the new titles I have been cast in.
