MARGA VAREA
Founder & Producer
Marga is an Emmy-nominated impact producer and distribution strategist with over two decades of experience in the industry. Originally from Spain, she started her career in narrative film and national television, later transitioning into the non-fiction world. Marga joined the team of PBS/POV documentary TRACES OF THE TRADE in 2009, leading its impact and international sales for five years. Her experience led to founding Twin Seas Media, a filmmaker-centered, creative distribution boutique agency dedicated to creative distribution for independent documentaries.
Over the years, Marga has worked with dozens of projects, including A CRIME ON THE BAYOU (Hulu), A RECKONING IN BOSTON (Independent Lens), PONY BOYS (NYT Op-Docs, Kanopy), MY SWEET LAND (ITVS), and UNTIL HE'S BACK, which was shortlisted for the 97th Academy Awards in the Best Documentary Short Subject category.
Marga is passionate about connecting films with audiences and building community through the shared experience of cinema. She has led dozens of screening tours and impact campaigns in partnership with independent cinemas, educational institutions, and cultural venues, reaching wide audiences across the country.
In addition to her distribution work, Marga consults for film festivals on audience engagement and programming. Originally from Spain, she is based in the Greater Boston area, where—when not working—you can find her at a local independent cinema, an art museum, or hanging out with her two kids.
