Complete filmography

Biography

Born in Bosnia to a linguist father working in television and a music teacher mother, Danis Tanovic soon showed an interest in cinema: When I was a child, I was impatient for Saturday to arrive so we could go to the movies. As a teenager, every day was movie day.
However, he went on to study engineering, before entering the INSA Film School in Brussels in 1996. On his return to Bosnia, he joined the Film Academy of Sarajevo and directed documentaries, including L’Aube and Ca ira. As Head of the Bosnian Army Film Archives, he shot more than 300 hours of film during the siege of Sarajevo.
In 2000, he directed his first feature: No Man’s Land, which was awarded the Best Screenplay Award at Cannes. As well as directing the film, Danis Tanovic, who studied at the Bosnian Academy of Music, also wrote the original music for the film.
In 2005, he directed L’Enfer, a drama inspired by Krzysztof Kieslowski’s and Krzysztof Piesiewicz’s trilogy Heaven, Hell, Purgatory.
