Ben Russell

The experimental titan of contemporary cinema, Ben Russell, was born in 1976 in Michigan, USA and has been actively directing films since the early 2000s. Known for pushing boundaries in the realms of experimental and ethnographic cinema, his notable works are "Let Each One Go Where He May" and the "A Spell to Ward Off the Darkness," both of which have been celebrated in numerous international film festivals. Russell's authorial style is marked by an exploration of the human condition, a deep sense of ethnography, and a distinct approach to non-linear narrative structures. Ben Russell, a true visionary, sees cinema not just as a medium for storytelling but also as a profound space for human introspection and cultural understanding.
