Director Biography - Anton Kostrov

Hi, my name Is Anton and I'm a 21-year old artist living in Helsinki, Finland. I love art and especially cinema and music.
Screenwriting, directing and acting are the things I most like doing. Also compositing shots and editing!

You can find my newest short film "The Red Planet", A Scorsese/Tarantino inspired b-movie that tells a story about a former Finnish movie star in the 70's who turns to a life of crime and killing. Check it out!
The film was shot by 17-19 year old students on a set that we build ourselves.
