Born in 1992, Christina Tournatzẽs is a German-Greek director based in Munich. Her award-winning graduation film Cargo was screened at more than 50 festivals worldwide.

Christina's first feature film Karla won the New German Cinema Award for Best Directing and Best Screenplay at the 42nd Munich Film Festival amongst other accolades.

Through her work, Christina seeks to give a voice and an empathetic stage to people who are often unheard in society and is drawn to complex characters, as well as the atmospheric and the unspoken.

Christina is currently developing her second feature film and we are thrilled to welcome her to the Festival.
