CAMPFIRE (2000) was a climax of Bavo Defurne’s short filmmaking, receiving invitations to screen at major festivals and winning several prizes. It was bought for television by leading broadcasters including Canal+ in France and Channel 4 in the UK.

Bavo Defurne has achieved the rare feat of his shorts being released in a feature length compilation in cinemas and on DVD by leading independent distributors around the world, including Strand Releasing (USA), Mikado (Italy), British Film Institute (UK), Salzgeber (Germany) and Cinemien (Benelux). Bavo Defurne’s work has also found its way into art galleries. In addition to its acclaim on the festival cir-cuit SAINT (1997) is widely regarded as a highly significant artistic representation of Saint Sebastian – a figure who has inspired many artworks over centuries. It has shown at exhibitions in the Kunsthalle, Vienna and Sala Kubo-Kutxa in San Sebastian.

2011 sees the release of Bavo Defurne’s long awaited first feature film, NORTH SEA TEXAS (Noordzee Texas) which advances the themes of his acclaimed short films.

Bavo Defurne summarises his filmmaking philosophy as follows –, “I don’t want to show people what they see when they look out their windows, I want to show what they can see when they close their eyes.”

Bavo lives in the port city of Ostend in Belgium, on the coastline where NORTH SEA TEXAS was made.
