“I build community and rebellion through art, proving creation is the strongest form of resistance.”
From ballet in Nashville to building an independent film company in New York, Aaron Dalla Villa has made a career of betting on himself.
With more than 70 film, television and theater productions behind him — from cult horror standout Pledge to Netflix’s The Wrath of Becky and an Emmy-FYC turn in The Plastic Men — Aaron works across the whole spectrum of independent film: acting, producing, directing and packaging.
As founder and CEO of One Man Army, he develops and produces filmmaker-led, performance-driven projects, and curates live screening events in downtown Manhattan.
