Margaux Amie is a Los Angeles–based filmmaker, actor, and founder of True Self Films, an independent production company championing women and underrepresented voices. After the loss of her husband, she rebuilt her life through storytelling — transforming grief into purpose and creating films that explore identity, resilience, and healing.

Her latest project, Therein Lies Darkness, is a psychological drama following a pop star’s struggle to reclaim herself amid loss and fame. With True Self Films, Margaux is breaking barriers of age, race, and gender in Hollywood, proving that powerful stories — and second acts — can begin at any stage of life.

Therein Lies Darkness follows international pop star Jasmine Reyna as she retreats from fame after a devastating loss, only to confront the haunting truths she’s buried beneath her success.

Currently in development under True Self Films, the project unites a diverse, award-winning team committed to bold, meaningful storytelling.
