Jasmin Mozaffari is a Canadian film director and screenwriter.
She won the Canadian Screen Award for Best Director at the 7th Canadian Screen Awards in 2019 for her debut feature film Firecrackers.
Mozaffari was born in Saskatoon, Saskatchewan. Her father (now deceased) was an Iranian immigrant who came to Canada from Tehran at the time of the Iranian Revolution.

After graduating, Jasmin directed the short films WAVE (2015), which premiered at the Vancouver International Film Festival, and sleep on the tracks (2018).
Based on her short thesis film, Mozaffari expanded Firecrackers into her first feature film. Firecrackers was made through the Telefilm Canada Talent to Watch Fund.

In December 2018, the Toronto International Film Festival named the film to its year end Canada's Top Ten list.
The film was released in Canada and the US theatrically in 2019 and became a New York Times Critic's Pick.

Her short film Motherland screened in the Short Cuts program at the 2023 Toronto International Film Festival, where it was the winner of the Best Canadian Short Film award.
