NARRATIVE FILM
I’ve been fascinated by film and television from an early age. 10-year old me would sneak downstairs on a Friday night to catch the latest episode of David Lynch’s Twin Peaks. It was a turning point: I was mesmerised, even if the series was dubbed into German.
Over the years, I discovered more of cinema’s greats from both West and East; their influences remain strong in the way I tell stories and compose my frames.
