Biography
Zeresenay Berhane Mehari directed critically acclaimed films that put Ethiopian cinema on the international map.

Beyond film, he co-founded and heads Original Content at Kana Television, Ethiopia's top-rated private satellite channel. As a screenwriter and filmmaker, he shapes narratives across multiple platforms—cinema for festival audiences and television for mass viewership in Ethiopia. A Capricorn with Life Path 5, his career reflects the restlessness and adaptability of that numerological signature: unwilling to stay confined to a single medium, he builds infrastructure (Kana Television) while pursuing auteur projects (feature films). His dual role—artist and entrepreneur—positions him as a rare figure in African media, one who both creates and distributes the stories that reach Ethiopian and diaspora audiences.
