Film as a confession.
Amine Lakhnech, born in May 1988, embarked on an extraordinary filmmaking journey from the heart of Tunisia. With a fervent passion for storytelling, he founded AntWorks Visuals in 2011, a production company that quickly grew from a whisper to a roar. Amine is a self-taught director who has sharpened his cinematic vision through a diverse array of projects across Tunisia, Algeria, and Morocco.
His debut film, “True Story,” resonated with audiences and critics alike, earning accolades at various international film festivals. Grounded by his initial success, Amine approaches his art with a blend of curiosity, reverence, and an insatiable desire to evolve. As 2024 heralds the release of his second film, “CASTRA,” Amine stands as a testament to the power of dedication and the relentless pursuit of cinematic excellence.
