German director and screenwriter Florian Heinkel von Donasmarck. Donas Mark emerged at the age of 33 with his debut film Eavesdropping Storm.
He believes that the greatest gift of a successful director is the belief that he can do the job perfectly. He recommends "treasures" in screenwriting such as "Sid Field Classic Playwriting Tutorial" and "Screenwriter's Alchemy" to young filmmakers. He returned to the North Film Festival this year after serving as a judge of the Temple of Heaven Award.
