Rosto

Rosto is a Dutch artist and filmmaker best known for his award-winning short film trilogy and online graphic novel Mind My Gap. Rosto is founder and owner of Studio Rosto A.D, a film production company, animation studio and atelier based in Amsterdam, the Netherlands. His first shorts (the rise and fall of the legendary) Anglobilly Feverson (2002) and Jona/Tomberry (winner of the Grand Prix Canal+ at the Cannes Film Festival 2005) screened at many prestigious international festivals and brought him worldwide recognition. These short films were part of Mind My Gap, a mixed media project that started with an online graphic novel (now concluded on www.mindmygap.com), and continued with music and print as well as films. A retrospective of the films and related work has been presented on several international festivals, including The Museum of Modern Art, Ljubljana in 2015. The Monster of Nix (2011) was the most ambitious project to date. The 30 minute animated musical took 6 years to produce and had an impressive voice cast including Terry Gilliam, Tom Waits, The Residents and The Dø. The film, which is dedicated to Rosto's son Max, was theatrically released in the Netherlands and Belgium, won numerous awards and screened at countless festivals. In 2008 No Place Like Home was released. It was the first of a tetralogy of short films concerning the music and characters of music project Thee Wreckers. Lonely Bones started its successful festival life at the International Film Festival Rotterdam 2013 and took home the grand prix of the biggest North American animation festival in Ottawa. Like his other films, Bones was also distributed in Dutch cinemas and has been broadcast by various international television stations. Splintertime (2015) is Rosto’s third in a series of four films featuring his music project Thee Wreckers. Reruns (2018) completes this Thee Wreckers Tetralogy. Rosto is currently writing his first feature film.
