Cyrus Frisch

Cyrus Frisch was born in 1969 in Amsterdam. Trained at the Netherlands Film and Television Academy, he sought from the outset a cinema of direct confrontation, with no explanation or comfort for the viewer. His first student works, which tackle taboo subjects, earned him the name of enfant terrible and that of wild man of Dutch cinema. His films, feature films, documentaries and plays, have been shown at many festivals and for thirty years have fed a debate on what filming commits one to.
