Lior Shamriz
Lior Shamriz (Hebrew: ליאור שמריז, born September 13, 1978, in Ashkelon, Israel) is a writer, producer, and film director. He resides in Berlin and in Los Angeles.
Career
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 with Heinz Emigholz, at UdK, Berlin.[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]
His featurette Japan Japan (2006-2007), produced independently with a micro-budget, was presented at about fifty international film festivals, among them the Locarno International Film Festival, the Sarajevo Film Festival, MoMA’s New Directors/New Films Festival, or Buenos Aires International Festival of Independent Cinema. His debut full-length Saturn Returns (2009) premiered opening Torino Film Festival’s Onde, was nominated for the Max Ophüls Preis at the film festival in Saarbrücken, 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,[3] where his feature films The Runaway Troupe of the Cartesian Theater premiered in 2013 at the 63rd edition of the festival, and Cancelled Faces at the 65th.[4][5]
Shamriz is also a regular guest at the International Short Film Festival Oberhausen. In 2014 his film L'amour sauvage received an Honorable Mention in the German competition. In 2015 his video The Cultural Attaché/Tornado for the band Kreidler won the 2nd prize in the 17th MuVi Award competition[6] – 2014 he had started the collaboration with the band accompanying their album ABC with 6 video clips, thus following the path of his former Professor Heinz Emigholz (the latter with his video series for the album Den).[7][8]
