Dreamscapes of the Dispersed & Echoes of Aspiration
 (Drama, UK & Switzerland 2025)

Vince, Annick & Trees are three different people with different skills, different backgrounds and different life situations. Nevertheless, all three have something in common: They all strive for a successful & lasting success in their profession as actors. While Annick & Trees live in Brussels (BEL), Vince lives in London (UK) but commutes between London (UK), Zurich (CH), Munich (D), Los Angeles (USA) & Sydney (AUS) due to his current lifestyle.

One day in early May in 2025: The daily lives of the three artists begin very differently for all of them:

Vince, who has just arrived at Heathrow Airport in London, completely exhausted from a short stay in Los Angeles, makes his way to his home studio, which is located on his former campus in Ealing, where his university (University of West London) is located. Through a few highly anticipated workshops in the States, Vince tries to think deeply about his future & about a possible change in his lifestyle. At the same time, his mentor, coach or close confidant gets in touch & tells him about a new acting community. From that moment on, he decided to make a change in his career that would take him to the next level.

Annick, who has a regular morning routine with yoga & breakfast with the family has settled into life, but hasn’t yet settled into her actual dream job, even though she’s already represented by a well-known agency. Through other side jobs, in addition to acting, which she mainly does from her home office, she can organize her free time quite flexibly. Even though she has a lot to struggle with herself & her self-realization, her family is the most important thing in her life & is also her rock in the storm.

Her everyday life is also programmed with a lot of variety.
When one morning during her usual work routine in the home office she saw an advertisement for a new actors community, she finally began to find out whether this would be an additional enrichment or a complete change for her future life as an actress.

Trees' everyday life is mainly characterized by very different work shifts in her part-time job in a clinic. Some days she feels fulfilled & has a great urge to act, & other days she feels like the world could collapse. She has a great passion for acting. For her, it’s like the air she breathes & she tries to continue working on her acting skills at every free opportunity, whether it is at home with independent practice techniques or attending workshops, which she has free access to as a graduate of her acting school. One evening after work she goes to a play in her city and during the intermission she receives a push notification on her smartphone, which says on Instagram, where Trees is registered, that a new acting community has just been launched.

One day, after all three saw the newly launched homepage of this new acting community at the same time on that particular day & registered there, they discovered many opportunities that were helpful for their careers as actors. Even the number of members is now almost 700 members spread across Europe. One day, a workshop was held in Belgium, organized by this new acting community. Vince also took the opportunity & traveled there to take part. This was also the first time he met Annick & Trees in person. From that point on, they decided to make films themselves with the help of this new community & work towards the next level of their careers.

My Work Behind the Camera:
As a filmmaker, I focus on exploring multifaceted themes, with the mental health of artists being a central focus. I'm particularly interested in authentically & empathetically portraying the struggles & challenges artists face in their lives & creative journeys.
My projects are characterized by dark & serious elements that evoke a powerful emotional response while also providing space for reflection. I intentionally craft this atmosphere through deliberate use of lighting, editing techniques, & seamless transitions, aiming to create an aesthetically captivating yet profoundly meaningful experience. My goal is to produce films that are both narratively & visually engaging, marked by a distinct personal signature.
I see my work as a blend of artistic expression & psychological analysis, inviting viewers to engage with the depicted themes on a deeper level. Each project is an opportunity to explore new creative approaches & add further dimensions to my style.

My Work in Front of the Camera:
As an actor, I feel most at ease in roles defined by complexity and internal contradictions. I specialize in portraying dark characters with combined personality disorders, who captivate through their intelligence, unpredictability, & emotional depth. These figures allow me to strike a balance between darkness & humanity, making them both authentic and multifaceted.
My approach to these roles is deeply influenced by my own personality & life experiences. It's important to me not only to portray the conflicts & challenges these characters face convincingly, but also to imbue them with a personal touch. I place great emphasis on nuances in facial expressions, gestures, & speech to capture the depth of the character & leave a lasting impact on the audience.
I view each role as an opportunity to better understand both myself & human nature. My goal is to establish a connection with the audience through my performances, taking them on an emotional journey.
