    • Trivia
      During his studies at Film and TV School of AMU (FAMU) he spent hours and hours watching VHS tapes and he and his classmate wrote down individual pictures of film on post-it notes. They were inspired by F. Truffaut, who, as they read, was repeatedly going to cinema to watch the same movies again and again in order to understand how they were made.
    • Trademarks
        He enjoys working in a team with other authors.
