Peter Pontikis

Peter Pontikis was born in Stockholm, Sweden, where he also graduated from the Royal College of Art in 2006. His thesis film, The Gift (2005), loosely based on a Velvet Underground song, earned him attention as a director. The film was also screened at KVIFF. In 2008, he followed it with the cult feature Not Like Others, a low budget vampire drama. Today, he works as a screenwriter and director and divides his time between commercials and fiction projects. Boy-Razor (2015) is so far his penultimate short movie.
