A Tribute to Joanna Hogg

Joanna Hogg ist die diesjährige Tribute Regisseurin 2014. Wir haben Joanna Hogg im dorftv Studio getroffen und mit ihr über ihre Karriere, ihre Filme: Exhibition, Caprice und Unrelated gesprochen.

Die Programmsektion TRIBUTE ist innovativen europäischen FilmautorInnen gewidmet, die bereits auf internationalen Filmfestivals für Aufmerksamkeit gesorgt haben und deren Gesamtwerk im Rahmen des Festivals präsentiert wird.

Born in London in 1960, Joanna Hogg resides and works in the United Kingdom’s capital. She studied at the National Film & Television School in Buckinghamshire, where her graduation film, CAPRICE (1986), starred “Matilda” (a.k.a. Tilda) Swinton in a very early screen appearance for the future Oscar-winner. Hogg also worked in photography, experimental film and music video, and her television work in the 1990s included episodes of the popular series LONDON’S BURNING, CASUALTY and LONDON BRIDGE, plus the stand-alone EASTENDERS special DOT’S STORY (2003). In 2007, her debut feature UNRELATED (2007), set in Tuscany and featuring Tom Hiddleston in his big-screen debut, premiered at the London Film Festival, winning the international critics‘ FIPRESCI award. Her 2010 follow-up ARCHIPELAGO, set on the Scilly Isles off the Cornish coast, received three nominations – Best Film, Best Screenplay and Best Actor (Hiddleston) – at the Evening Standard British Film Awards. In 2013, her third film EXHIBITION (2013) competed for the Golden Leopard at Locarno, and her work was showcased in the Emerging Artist sidebar of the 51st New York Film Festival.
