My Films :

I love making movies about things that I have experienced in life. This might be in fact or just in mind.

Rolemodels: Sidney Poitier is my most favorite Actor and rolemodel regarding Film. I'm a bit Like Spike Lee, because I do it my way, my vision, with my available resources. If you don't like it, well ... Lets see yours.
