Bio

Marga Varea is a distribution strategist, impact producer, and founder of Twin Seas Media, a filmmaker-centered agency she launched in 2015 to help independent documentaries find their audiences and build lasting impact. She works closely with filmmakers to develop sustainable release strategies that bring people together through the shared experience of cinema.

Over the past two decades, she has worked at the intersection of filmmaking, distribution, and audience engagement, leading creative release strategies for dozens of documentaries, including A CRIME ON THE BAYOU (Hulu), A RECKONING IN BOSTON (PBS Independent Lens), PONY BOYS (NYT Op-Docs), MY SWEET LAND (ITVS), SHUFFLE (SXSW Grand Jury Prize, 2025), BABY DOE, and UNTIL HE’S BACK, which was shortlisted for the 97th Academy Awards for Best Documentary Short Subject.

Originally from Spain, Marga began her career in narrative film and television before finding her way into nonfiction. In 2009, she joined the team behind the PBS/POV documentary TRACES OF THE TRADE, where she led impact and international sales for five years—an experience that shaped her approach to distribution as both a creative discipline and a way to meaningfully connect films with the world.

When she’s not working, you’ll likely find her at a local cinema, wandering through an art museum, or traveling with her two kids.
