Paola DiFlorio is an Oscar and Emmy–nominated filmmaker and co-founder of
Counterpoint Films with her husband, author and filmmaker Peter Rader. Their breakthrough documentary Awake: The Life of Yogananda became one of the top-grossing indie docs of 2014–15 and set their mission to create media that “awakens the human spirit.”
Since then, they’ve developed and consulted on numerous projects exploring spirituality, science, and healing, including Infinite Potential and the award-winning My Father, The Healer.
A board member of the Illuminate Film Festival, DiFlorio has spoken at Stanford, NYU, UC Berkeley, USC, and The Shift Network’s Visionaries Summit. With Rader, she founded Source to Screen, a creativity and spirituality incubator offered at Esalen and film festivals nationwide. Counterpoint’s upcoming slate includes a remake of a Hollywood blockbuster slated for 2026.
