Sander van Dijk

Sander van Dijk (1987) is a screen­writer and dir­ect­or based in Ams­ter­dam. Dur­ing his time at the Neth­er­lands Film Academy, Sander dir­ec­ted mul­tiple short films in his after-school hours, one of which was selec­ted for the Neth­er­lands Film Fest­iv­al (SOL­LI­CIT­ATIE, 2014). He gradu­ated in 2016 with the neo-noir sci-fi short DARK MACHINE. After dir­ect­ing sev­er­al com­mer­cials, Sander co-wrote the mid-length fea­ture DORMIS (2022) as part of an antho­logy series for Dutch stream­ing ser­vice Video­land. He also wrote and dir­ec­ted the short TABLE 8 (2022), which was selec­ted for numer­ous inter­na­tion­al film fest­ivals, includ­ing the Sedona Inter­na­tion­al Film Fest­iv­al, where the film was awar­ded the ‘Director’s Choice Award’.

Sander has been a great lov­er of film and TV series since child­hood and par­tic­u­larly enjoys explor­ing the sub­con­scious through the mys­tery genre. But whatever the case, Sander is hell-bent on tak­ing the audi­ence for a ride full of twists and turns they won’t soon forget.
