Film and video director, editor and cinematographer. My name is Pieter Genee (NL, 1994). I am a London/Amsterdam-based director and cinematographer with experience working across Europe as well as in extreme conditions across the globe. I just finished my Ma in documentary directing at the National Film and Television School. Recently I shot and directed (branded) documentaries in regions across South Africa, Scotland and the Netherlands. My first short film ‘Sweet Life’, about a young girl with diabetes, got nominated in the Short Doc competition at In the Palace. My second short ‘In love and sorrow.’ was nominated for best short at Norwich Film Festival and tells a post-industrial love story in times of a changing climate. My most recent film ‘Khayelitsha’, about an artist collective in a South-African township, won an One World Media Award, was nominated in the Global Graduate Showcase and is nominated for a student Academy Award. I am very interested in the aesthetics of mood, and finding stories where the place, person and past perfectly coalesce and I am a firm believer in careful considerations regarding representation in front and behind the camera. I own a fx6 kit with leica lenses and a dji mavic pro drone.
