GEOFFREY ENTHOVEN • DIRECTOR Geoffrey Enthoven (1974) is a Ghent, Belgium KASK academy graduate. His graduation project DE AANSPREKER with Bert André received several awards and was shown in many countries. In 1999, he started the production company Fobic Films with partner Mariano Vanhoof. Their first feature film, CHILDREN OF LOVE (2001) was awarded the Ghent Film Festival Audience Award. Geoffrey produced the documentary A VOICE ON WINGS, and the short film A MESSAGE FROM OUTER SPACE. In 2006, Geoffrey directed his second feature film THE ONLY ONE written by Jaak Boon with octogenarian actor Nand Buyl as a cranky old man who refuses to give up his role in society. The film enraptured Belgian critics who awarded it their annual (André Cavens) Film Critics Award. His third feature HAPPY TOGETHER (2007) was a doom-laden tragedy on a family man who loses his job and runs out of options. Geoffrey also directed dozens of episodes of the massively popular Flemish drama novella SARA.
