Karel Konings obtained his masters from the Catholic University of Leuven, where he majored in Engineering. Not being fulfilled with this career, he went to the Theatre Academy of Amsterdam (AHK) and learnt the craft of acting. During this period, he also sparked a passion for filmmaking. His latest short film ‘BIRDCAGE’ will premier in October 2023 at Screamfest. Earlier that year he also played the lead in a Rwandese feature film called KIGALI 21. Having acted, directed and written, he is now determined to combine these crafts and create movies that will hook the viewers for ages.
Everything starts with a good story.
