Biography
Nicolas Roeg (b. 1928, London) is a world-renowned DOP and director with numerous pictures to his credit. In 2008 KVIFF organized a retrospective of his work, including the cult flick Walkabout (1971), portraying the ritual of a boy and girl growing up in the Australian bush; the incisive analysis of male obsession and relationships entitled Bad Timing (1980); the intimate film testimony Two Deaths (1994); and the mystery thriller Puffball (2007). Roeg's films excel for their superb atmosphere and for editing which overrides the traditional narrative conception of time and space while evoking controversial reactions in a wide range of emotions. Namely, he works with extremes and thus brings to light those moments that force us to doubt the perfection of human civilization and of cinema.
