Juhani Teivas

I am a 23 year old filmmaker from Finland/Algeria who focuses on writing/directing in both Germany and Finland. For me, filmmaking has always been both a challenge and a form of entertainment. I see each new project as a test of endurance not against others, but against myself, pushing to create stories that will outlast me. I look to figures like Stan Lee for inspiration, whose characters and worlds continue to resonate and impact audiences decades later after they were created.

As a writer, I strive to craft bold, unique stories with the shocking, crude, and emotional beats of Fujimoto, combined with the sharp pacing and rhythm of Tarantino. As a director, my values are rooted in openness and collaboration: while preparation is essential, I believe equally in improvisation and in trusting my cast and crew to bring unexpected ideas that elevate the vision.

Balancing both roles, I aim to create films that are memorable, daring, and collaborative stories that challenge, entertain, and leave a lasting impression.
