Tom Tykwer was born in 1965 in Wuppertal/Germany. Fascinated by film from an early age, he started making amateur Super-8 films at the age of eleven. After graduating from high school, he moved to Berlin where he started working in the film business. Following the production of two short films, his first full-length feature film Deadly Maria was released in 1993. Many successful movies such as Run Lola Run, The Perfume and The International established Tykwer as one of the most exciting writer-director-composers in European cinema. His current film project is Cloud Atlas, starring Tom Hanks.
Tom Tykwer also co-founded the non-profit organization One Fine Day e.V. which promotes and supports artistic education of youths in developing countries. In this framework Tom Tykwer helped to produce the low-budget film Soul Boy, a FilmAfrika! Project directed by Hawa Essuman which was almost entirely shot in Kibera/Nairobi.
