Production company Caviar has signed writer and director Sasha Nathwani for U.S. commercial and music video representation. Known for blending deeply personal storytelling with a visually rich and emotionally resonant style, Nathwani has a body of work which spans narrative film, branded content and music videos. Joining Caviar marks his first representation in the U.S. market for commercials and music videos.
Nathwani’s debut feature–Last Swim, produced by Caviar–premiered at the 2024 Berlin International Film Festival where it won the prestigious Crystal Bear award. The film continued its momentum with a celebrated screening at the BFI London Film Festival and is currently in theaters across the U.K. and Ireland, with a global streaming release forthcoming.
In the commercialmaking space, Nathwani has directed campaigns for brands including New Balance, the Royal Navy, and On Running. His recent short film, It’s How You Show Up, created for the National Autistic Society and released on World Autism Awareness Day, exemplifies his commitment to telling emotionally grounded stories from underrepresented perspectives–which is reflected in both his commercial and narrative work.
Caviar U.S. executive producer Salim El Arja noted, “Sasha’s work is as grounded as it is cinematic. He has a rare ability to capture interior emotional worlds while building vivid visual ones. We’re proud to have produced Last Swim and even prouder to bring him into the Caviar family in a bigger way.”
Nathwani added, “Caviar has long championed bold, distinctive voices, so joining their U.S. roster is an exciting and meaningful step. After collaborating with their U.K. team on my debut feature, Last Swim, I experienced firsthand their passion for craft and their unwavering support for authentic expression. I’m looking forward to continuing that relationship and building a body of work in the U.S. that reflects my brand of nuanced emotional narratives, particularly those centered on underrepresented perspectives, a hallmark of both my commercial and narrative work”.
Born and raised in London, Nathwani studied at NYU’s Tisch School of the Arts. He began his career working across fashion and music before moving into film.
