OXANA, THE ACTRESS is developed, written and played by Radha Mitchell. Radha Mitchell also writes the script together with Stefanie Schneider.
Radha Mitchell, born in 1973 and a native of Melbourne, Australia, had her debut role as Danni in Emma-Kate Croghan's romantic comedy love and other catastrophes (1996), in which she co-starred with fellow Aussie actress Frances O'Connor. Radha has worked on both the stage and on the small screen in her native country. She started acting while still in high school in the Woods theater production of desire. Among Radha's earlier film credits are the short film sleeping beauties (1999), and the theatrical release high art (1998), in which Radha stars opposite Ally Sheedy. Both films were screened at the Sundance Film Festival, the later of which won the prestigious Waldo Salt Screenwriting Award© and appeared in the Director's Fortnight Ceremonies at the Cannes International Film Festival in France. She has also worked under the direction of Marc Forster in his films everything put together (2000) and finding neverland (2004), for the later of which she was nominated for a Screen Actors Guild Award for "Outstanding Performance by Cast". Most recently she starred in such films as Woody Allen's melinda and melinda (2004), mozart and the whale (2005), a story about two people with Asperger's Syndrome trying to make a go of their relationship despite their condition, and silent hill (2006). She has thus become a sought after and successful actress. She has been featured regularly in Stefanie Schneider's art. With a passion and talent for writing, she wants to pursue more creative fulfillment in that field as well.
