Description
I am a film director, screenwriter, camera operator and editor. I have completed a series of films in Vietnam, Portugal, Hungary, and Belgium. They belong to fiction, documentary and experimental genres. My films have been presented at major European and Asian film festivals, including Locarno, Rotterdam, and Tampere.
In 2018, my debut fiction short "Ant-Man" won the Most Promising Filmmaker from Southeast Asia Award at the 2nd SeaShorts Film Festival in Malaysia. In 2021, I directed the docufiction "The Eternal Springtime", which premiered at International Film Festival Rotterdam (IFFR) 2021 and qualified for an Oscars long-list nomination after receiving the Best Documentary Award at the 66th International Cork Film Festival and Best Director at the Baku International Film Festival. In the same year, his experimental film "My Own Room" received the prestigious Wildcard Award from the Vlaams Audiovisueel Fonds (VAF, Belgium).
I earned a Master’s degree in Documentary Film Directing from DocNomads (European Erasmus Scholarship) in 2021 and was also selected as a Berlinale Talents alumnus the same year. Since September 2022, I have been doing a PhD in the Arts (Doctoral Fellowship) at ARIA/Sint Lucas Antwerpen (KdG) / University of Antwerp.
