WHO WORKS AT QUE SERA SERA FILMS?
What sets Que Sera Sera Films apart from other companies is commitment to good storytelling with a purpose. Our CEO’s, both originally trained as conservation scientists, started this company because they believed that it was their responsibility to bring the information about the issues they understood to the general public. And to learn all they could about how do this in the most effective way possible. Everyone at Que Sera Sera Films believes strongly in these principles. And is driven to ensure that our films achieve this.
MEET OUR CEOS
Jennifer Lewis
Jennifer has a PhD in Biology with an expertise in tropical dolphins. After working for a summer as a naturalist for a nature documentary film crew, she became curious about the impact of film for conservation. She decided to learn more and set off to work on her first film (“Who Will Save the River Dolphin?”). Believing that communication through storytelling is a powerful medium to interest people in conservation, she returned to school and is currently working on a second dissertation on this topic at George Mason University.
Mahmud Rahman
Mahmud has a Master’s in Aquatic Ecology, with a focus on tropical dolphins and sharks. It was during this work that he mastered wildlife photography. He had an interest in film but had not considered this to be a possible career avenue. Collaborating with Jennifer Lewis on dolphin conservation projects, he learned about and also became interested in documentary production. He found a love for the use of this other medium (video production) to help aid conservation. A brilliant inventor, he enhances the films he produces for QSS with amazing technology.

Que Sera Sera (Translation: Whatever Will Be Will Be)
The name of our company came from our general perspective about life. It takes a certain kind of person to take this career path. The risks involved are considerable. One must be willing without regrets to “jump off a cliff” at every opportunity. You have to be willing to take whatever comes.
It will not also come as a surprise that we all love movie classics. Many of us had seen “The Glass Bottom Boat” or heard the Doris Day song (Que Sera Sera) from the soundtrack. So when considering names, because we don’t worry about the consequences of taking chances, this name seemed perfect.
