Joshua Oppenheimer Biography
Joshua Oppenheimer is a film director who has made a name for himself in the international film industry from his base in Copenhagen, Denmark. Known for his Oscar-nominated documentaries "The Act of Killing" and "The Look of Silence," Oppenheimer's work has been recognized with prestigious accolades, including the MacArthur Fellowship and the Marshall Scholarship. "The Act of Killing" secured the BAFTA for Best Documentary and the European Film Award for Best Documentary, while "The Look of Silence" clinched the Grand Jury Prize at the 71st Venice International Film Festival.
In addition to his filmmaking accolades, Oppenheimer is a recognized figure in the film festival circuit, having served as a guest director for the Telluride Film Festival in 2017 and as a member of the main competition jury for the 73rd Venice International Film Festival in 2016. His expertise extends beyond documentaries, as evidenced by his directorial work on the post-apocalyptic musical "The End," which premiered at the 51st Telluride Film Festival in 2024 and was later screened at the Toronto International Film Festival.
Beyond his directorial pursuits, Oppenheimer is also a published co-author, contributing to books such as "Acting on AIDS: Sex, Drugs & Politics" and "Killer Images: Documentary Film, Memory and the Performance of Violence." Known for his outspoken stance on political issues, particularly concerning the U.S. role in the 1965 killings in Indonesia, Oppenheimer's work often reflects his commitment to shedding light on historical atrocities.
