His next short film, Summer Love, was produced in 2002 and received numerous international distinctions. This was followed in 2005 by the short film Second Nature, which won, among others, an Honorary Mention at the Locarno Film Festival and was described as “a bold film that talks about joy, fear and man’s place in the universe. An ode to the essence of life.” Besides his film work from 2000 to date, he has also worked as a director of commercials.
