About the Writer/Director
FILIP K. KASPERASZEK considers himself a moderately talented, but passionate, amateur chef. He keeps dreaming about owning his own vineyard, not caring about how cliché it might sound to anyone. In his free time, he works as a screenwriter, script consultant and lecturer, splitting his time between Poland, New York and Shanghai. Currently, he has two projects in development – Maja + Theo & Others, with financing from the Polish Film Institute, and Ordinary Acts of Bravery, with the support of the Polish Ministry of Culture.
