Demo Reel

On Set

UNALTERED

Role: Ava

Get ready to dive into another reality with this drama thriller set in a post-apocalyptic world.

In this film, Rebecca’s role was very physical, involving a chair being broken over her back. For an actor who digs adventure, it was a brilliant experience out in the woods, in the middle of nowhere.

OYSTER

Role: Sofia

This short comedy was a real ensemble work; as a team player who enjoys creating in the moment, Rebecca had a blast bringing these larger-than-life characters around a table for some family holiday craze! Sofia is an absolute hoot; I just let her do her thing in the scene, says Rebecca.

WE ARE DATA

Role: AI

In this docufiction about data and artificial intelligence, Rebecca played the AI in physical form. A tremendous metamorphosis, a journey at the frontier of humanity, with a fascinating subject matter to research and explore.

EMPTINESS

Role: Sophie

Emptiness premiered at the Montreal Fantasia Festival in July 2023. This conceptual thriller horror was mostly shot at night, the perfect setting to unleash the extraordinary energy that this kind of storytelling requires. Thanks to a little Alexander walking, yerba maté and a few push ups at 3am, Rebecca was fully present to her character and her role in the story.

Untitled Silent Feature

Role: Journalist

Rebecca just wrapped up a silent feature film (details to come!). Working with some amazing actors was an inspiring experience, while embodying silent characters was a revelation of new facets of her acting abilities.

Rebecca Rowley Singer. Songwriter.

Rebecca's journey through music is something of a venture through styles. Coming from the world of classical music, where she honed her skills as a violinist and a pianist, Rebecca seamlessly transitioned into jazz, pop, and alternative genres.

Singer. Songwriter.

In 2011, she founded her jazz & bossa nova quartet, La Cançao, which has performed over 120 live shows! The original arrangements are a mesmerising and soulful expression of her creative talent and she is regularly praised for her sensitivity in the choice of repertoire.

Her vocation for music naturally led Rebecca to songwriting and composition. As a result, two music projects have recently emerged: Rose Bonbon — a French pop project, and TOÀ — a liturgical jazz project.
