Tin Dirdamal Filmmaker (Dark Light Voyage)

September 28, 2022

A self-taught filmmaker, Tin Dirdamal uses mistakes and limitations as his driving force – the not knowing as his compass.

Tin is an advocate of plagiarism and ignorant of world affairs. He believes that lies can be an instrument to approach truth. He knows how to find underground water and until recently never read a book. He’s a gypsy and a nomad, and he lives in places for 2 years with the understanding he will soon abandon them.

His films have been shown and awarded at Venice Biennale, Visions du Reel, Sundance, and IDFA. He has received grants from Sundance Institute and Rockefeller Media Artists.
