Cato Kusters (1998) combined a master's degree in Directing with a bachelor's degree in Editing at Ritcs School of Arts. Her graduation short film caught the attention of producer duo Michiel and Lukas Dhont, with whom she began development of her feature debut "Julian", an adaptation of Fleur Pierets' book of the same name. Cato is fascinated by the gestures that connect us in the midst of confusion and polarization.
