Beni Atoori
President
Beni Atoori has been an influential member of the independent film industry for over twenty-five years. After graduating from the American Film Institute in 1993, Beni has been a major part on numerous successful films as everything from Director, to Producer and Writer. Atoori has developed a respectable collection of award-winning films such as “Thirteen Conversation About One Thing” starring Mathew McConaughey and Alan Arkin, as well as his most recent release, “The Last Movie Star”, starring the late, great, US cinema phenom, Burt Reynolds.
Atoori, the founder of Stonelock Pictures and Visionary Artists is anticipating that Wonderland Studios will become an entertainment hub that supports the independent film industry and the creators that work within.
Having secured $700MM+ in financing over the duration of his award winning career, veteran producer and industry heavy-weight Beni Atoori continues to be a trail blazer in both film and financial industries alike. Nominated by the U.S. State Department to represent the U.S. Embassy at the Sultanate of Oman’s Muscat Film Festival, devout philanthropist (with a personal donation of $1.5MM to the Baghdad Museum Project) Beni’s contribution to culture and the preservation of the arts far extends beyond the realm of just film.
