Nicolas Lavanchy was born on the 3rd of January, 1976 in Berne and grew
up in a small suburb. After an apprenticeship as laboratory technician
he passed the Matura exams and started in 2000 to study chemistry at
the University of Zurich. After the first year he left university to
make his dream of being a filmmaker become reality. Between the years
2000 and 2003 he attended several workshops in the areas of directing,
editing and screenwriting. Additionally he educated himself in the most
important areas of filmmaking. He got support and help from the Zurich
based filmmaker Rene Krummenacher, "without him he probably never would
have been able to make his dream become reality" as Nicolas Lavanchy
says. Nicolas Lavanchy lives in Berlin, Germany. He is producing and
directing feature films and documentaries.
