From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Lior Shamriz (Hebrew: ליאור שמריז, born September 13, 1978, in Ashkelon, Israel) is a writer, producer, and film director. He currently resides in Berlin.

His featurette "Japan Japan" (2006/7), produced independently with a micro-budget, was presented at about fifty international film festivals, among them the Locarno Film Festival, the Sarajevo Film Festival, MoMA’s New Directors/New Films, BAFICI. His debut full-length "Saturn Returns" (2009) premiered opening Torino Film Festival’s Onde, was nominated to the Max Ophüls Preis in Germany and co-won the New Berlin Award at Achtung Berlin film festival. Return Return (2010), a non-narrative video based on clips from Saturn Returns, premiered at the 60th Berlin Film Festival’s Forum Expanded.[1]

A prolific filmmaker, he develops his own écriture, experimenting with form, deconstructing narratives and reconstructing their pieces into something unique, which bears his own personal trademark.[2]

Shamriz studied film at the Jerusalem Film School from 2002 until being expelled in 2004. He later studied Experimental Media Design at the Institute for Time Based Media, UdK, Berlin where he is now based.[3]
