DIRECTOR BIO
In the 1980s, he became interested in filmmaking and produced a number of short films that aroused considerable critical interest. Van Dormael made his feature-length debut in 1991 with Toto le Heros (Toto the hero), a tale about a man who believes his life was “stolen” from him when he was switched at birth, told in a complex mosaic of flashbacks and dream sequences sometimes with almost a stream of consciousness effect. Toto le Héros gained wide critical acclaim, winning both the Cesar Award for best foreign film and the Camera d’Or at the Cannes Film Festival making Van Dormael something of an overnight celebrity. His brother Pierre Van Dormael was a jazz guitarist and composer, and had scored his feature films.
