Director Fabian Bielinsky has come aboard Saville Productions, Beverly Hills, for exclusive representation in the U.S. market. He is active in both features and commercials.
On the former front, Bielinsky’s feature directing debut, Nine Queens, swept the Argentinean Film Critics’ Association Awards in 2001, copping best film, best screenplay and best director honors. The film also garnered the People’s Choice Award from MTV Argentina in ’00, and the Audience Award and Best Director Prize at the ’01 Lleida Latin-American Film Festival.
Bielinsky’s second feature, El Aura, was selected to represent Argentina in the competition for best feature film in a foreign language at this year’s Academy Awards.
Over the years, Bielinsky has assorted spots to his credit. He helmed Telecom Argentina’s “Yawn,” which won a Gold Lion at the Cannes International Advertising Festival in ’01. And his Nike “Magic” commercial was awarded the Gold Lapiz honor in Argentina.
In ’01, Bielinsky was named best commercial director in both the Ojo de Iberoamerca and Circulo de Creativos festivals.
