And “The Tribe” goes to…

… Director Jorg Ihle.

Jorg was born in Germany and graduated from the directing program at the famous American Film Institute. He wrote "The Tribe" with Mo Ramchandani, who produces the film.


Everyone would love to have his job but not many are ready to do what comes with it… A lot of hard work and dedication to the project 24/7. Directing means having story for breakfast, locations for lunch, castings for dinner and a little bit of meetings for desert. Hey, I agree, it’s not only the most beautiful job in the world but also one of the most rewarding ones. You help the audience to escape their everyday lives to share your story, capture their imagination and entertain them. Giving people hope and dreams that have none…

So everyone who truly loves to tell a story using this visual medium called film must also be willing to take on the workload that comes with it. And that’s were my job comes into play: Make everything as easy as possible for Jorg by assisting him. Am I doing a good job…? I don’t know, you’ll have to ask him :-)

Good luck on your journey Jorg, I can’t wait to see the result!
