Born in Winnipeg, Manitoba Nadia Litz and comes from a British and Ukrainian family. Nadia expressed her desire to be in film after she watched David Lynch's Elephant Man with her Dad when she was eight. A creative child, Nadia spent her childhood, dancing, writing and watching films. After graduating early from high school, she attended York University Theatre program but then paused her degree when she was cast in director Jeremy Podeswa's feature The Five Senses, where she played a teenager experimenting with gender and sexuality identity. That film premiered at Cannes Director's Fortnight. Soon after, she starred as Sam Shepard's daughter - for which she was nominated for Best Actress at the Canada Screen Awards, in Podeswa's follow-up After The Harvest. Nadia continued to act and get her degree, but it was while being represented Propaganda Films where she became more interested in filmmaking than in acting because of the highly auteur-driven environment... "I would visit my manager's office and directors like Spike Jonze and David Fincher would be hanging out in the lobby where there was a small skateboard ramp.... Sofia Coppola was married to Spike Jonze and those people looked like they were having more fun, creatively, than the actors... I had always wanted to make films and in hindsight I see that I chose acting roles with really strong directors or smaller films where I could had more say. I think I did that so I could learn.... " After getting her degree in film at York University, Nadia was accepted to the Berlin Talent Lab where her mentors included Tilda Swinton and Wim Wenders. She was accepted to the post-secondary school Canadian Film Center as a Director-In-Residence and there made her first short film How To Rid Your Lover Of A Negative Emotion Caused By You! with producer Daniel Bekerman (The Witch, Falling) That short played over 25 film festivals internationally, premiering at the Toronto International Film Festival and winning Best Short at Austin's Fantastic Fest.
