“We have been following Sebastien’s career for some time now, and he has continuously created outstanding work.  His persona is very charismatic, and we believe that Seb will add a new dimension of subtle and well-crafted comedy to our work.”

Sebastien added:

“HAMLET is a solid company with a soul that I identify with and signing to them felt natural when we talked. My aim as a director is to be pushed and challenged towards making quality work and I think HAMLET have what it takes to evolve my creative world in the direction which I want it to move in: subtle, dry comedy storytelling with a touch of drama!”
