Portuguese film director From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
João Pedro Rodrigues (born 24 August 1966) is a Portuguese film director. He is considered to be part of The School of Reis.
Having studied at the School of Theatre and Cinema of Portugal, Rodrigues started his career as an assistant director and editor in several features, directed, for example, by Alberto Seixas Santos and Teresa Villaverde. In 1997, Rodrigues directed his first film O Fantasma (Phantom) (2000). Apart from the minor controversy it generated in Portugal, the film was shown in Spain, Italy, France, Brazil and the United States with modest results. Two Drifters (2005), his second feature film, garnered relative international acclaim and was shown at the Cannes Film Festival.
His features have been produced and released by the production company Rosa Filmes.
He is openly gay.[1]
