Biography
Kim Nguyen has gained international recognition for his films, which are known for their atmospheric visual style, and elements of fantasy and magic realism. He is perhaps best known for his fourth feature, Rebelle (War Witch, 2012), a harrowing portrait of child soldiers in sub-Saharan Africa. It received numerous honours including 10 Canadian Screen Awards and eight Jutra Awards — including trophies for best director and screenplay at both galas — and an Academy Award nomination for Best Foreign Language Film.
