Vincent Boy Kars
Since graduating from the AKV St. Joost Academy, Vincent Boy KARS (1990, Netherlands) has made a name for himself as a documentary director who investigates identity, self-image and sexuality. He often examines these topics in the context of the digital age. Kars aims to challenge and play with the documentary film’s format, flirting with the borders between fiction and reality. In 2017, his documentary Independent Boy, which explores society’s definition of success, premiered at IDFA. Drama Girl (2020) premiered in the Tiger Competition at IFFR 2020. His third feature-length film, Future Me (2024), had its world premiere at IFFR 2024. His latest short film, bubble bubble (2026), will have its world premiere at IFFR 2026.
