If he wasn’t a director Louis would probably have ended up a psychologist. His interest in human behaviour was the reason to start studying psychology in 1992 at the university of Amsterdam. After two years of spending more time working on filmsets than debating Freud, he decided to re-think my career.

In 1999, after finishing Audio Visual Media studies at the HKU, he started as a commercial and music-video director. Since then he developed a wide experience working for Dutch, and international brands.

He’s a character-driven storyteller, and after years of making light-hearted comedy, his interest shifted towards more socially relevant content.

Screenwriting was a next logical step for him. The combination between writing and directing is powerful, and he loves doing it both. His goal is to tell emotional and original stories that matter.
