Jess Poe is a Portland-based experimental filmmaker.

Jess is a nonlinear storyteller. Her memories, and thus her narratives, are made up of ephemeral visuals and emotions washed in color.

Her work weaves together film, texture, and sound to create cinematic patchworks, layering intimate and emotionally charged moments into dreamlike, sensory experiences.

Jess is currently developing a surreal poetry film short that blends dream logic, sound loops, and poetic voice to trace an emotional journey through memory, love, and self-reclamation.
