I made my first film No 1 in 1983 at the age of 18. My major interest, and ever since,
is to understand the role, the possibilities and the limitations of the individual in a community.
To understand our role and our motivation which moves us through our life.
Since 1986 I studied for three years linguistic and theatre history at the University of Gdansk, Poland.
Between 1989 and 1995 i was working in the Hungarian film industry as assistant director, cameraman and editor. In this period I also collaborated with the Hungarian dance group Tranzdanz as director and cameraman for their visual backgrounds but we also produced several dance films which were shown in Europe and the US.
In 1996 I moved to the Netherlands.
Between 1999 and 2009 I collaborated on several projects of the Italian filmmaker Stefano Odoardi both in the Netherlands and in Italy. I produced, filmed and edited his projects like The land that is not, The last reel, The earth in the sky and Una Ballata Bianca.
In the same period I edited several projects of the Dutch filmmaker Sytske Kok which included not only drama productions but some educational projects as well.
In 2008 I was one of the editors of Paulo Coelho’s Experimental witch project.
Several of these productions are award winnings.
2011-2018 I worked at PameijerTv, the audiovisuals department of Pameijer with patients of the social psychiatry.
