RYAN’S STORY
Ryan Ladao is an award-winning writer and director recognized for his fearless exploration of the unsettling and the absurd. Known for his dark sense of humor and keen ability to connect with the psyche of his actors, he draws out performances that are both disturbingly raw and deeply human. His films blend psychological depth with transgressive imagery, creating stories that unnerve while provoking thought and, at times, an uncomfortable laugh. HOMUNCULUS is the latest expression of Ryan's bold vision—pushing boundaries at the intersection of grief, obsession, and grotesque creation. It’s the kind of movie that makes you laugh, squirm, and rethink breakfast eggs all at the same time.
