Daniela Di Salvo

Humdrum

2025 Screenwriting Contest - Semifinalist

Daniela Di Salvo is an award-winning independent writer and director based in Toronto, Canada, with a background in graphic design and the performing arts. A devoted student of horror cinema, she draws inspiration from masters of the genre who understand that true terror comes from authentic human emotion and psychological depth. Her approach to storytelling honours the genre's power to transform personal darkness into universal catharsis. When she's not crafting tales of doom and gloom, Daniela can be found devouring films across all genres and getting lost in a good book.
