MEET ALEX

Alexander Hagani is a New York City native and award-winning filmmaker who draws inspiration from his own experiences and unique upbringing as a child of divorce.

Alexander started NORTH130 (N130 for short) to produce and create moving stories while striving towards the long-term goal of creating long-form narratives (whether that be feature films or television).

So far, the two shorts made under the N130 banner are funny, dramatic, entertaining, moving, and focused on the struggles of growing up.

As N130’s ‘Top Shot’ takes on the film festival circuit, Alexander is developing the short into his debut feature film.
