Jan Eelen (°1970) is one of Belgium's finest, most diverse directors and writers of fiction. Although each of his productions is radically different from the last, he always manages to find a large audience. He has influenced a whole generation of filmmakers, as many of his characters and dialogue lines have become the subject of memes in Flanders.
Consistent in his work is Eelen's mastery of character, rhythm and surprise. He refuses to play along with the expectations of the viewer, or even his characters. His fiction would be misanthropic, if it wasn't so humane.
Apart from his television work, Eelen has adapted the Yasmina Reza play Carnage for the theater in 2012.- Mike Verdrengh was born on 27 January 1946 in Leuven, Flanders, Belgium. He is an actor, known for De Rodenburgs (2009), Salamander (2012) and Spitsbroers (2015).
