Director Biography - Erika Harlos-Szendrey

I was born in Budapest, Hungary. After completing my MA in Literature and Linguistics and obtaining my Diploma of Education, I moved to Oxford, UK. In 2011 I started working for the Bodleian Libraries of the University of Oxford, later specialising on electronic resources.
I have always liked movies and reading film directors’ biographies. After attending a few film courses, I fell in love with cinematography. At the moment I work as a freelancer and I am studying Cinematography and Videography.
