About Mahmoud

Mahmoud Boukhriss
Screenwriter | Film Student | Myth & Memory Storyteller Milwaukee, WI | Bilingual: Arabic / English

Hi, I’m Mahmoud — a freshman Film & Animation student at the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee with a deep passion for emotionally powerful, myth-inspired storytelling. I’m the creator of “Trial World,” a survival series rooted in global mythology and psychology, and the writer of “The Last Escape,” a grounded thriller exploring identity, justice, and truth in modern America.

I’m especially interested in:

Limited series with social themes and layered character arcs

Storytelling is influenced by Moroccan and Japanese folklore

Opportunities for collaboration, mentorship, or assistant roles in writers' rooms

Inspired by creators like Hayao Miyazaki and the writer of Squid Game, I write from the heart, blending poetic worldbuilding with real-world relevance. Let’s connect if you're looking to build stories that matter.
