Charli XCX's activities during TIFF (Toronto International Film Festival)

In the world of independent cinema, American filmmaker Pete Ohs continues to make a name for himself with his distinctive, experimental style. Known for his multifaceted roles as director, screenwriter, cinematographer, editor, and sometimes actor or producer, Ohs' latest project, "Erupcja" (also known as "Eruption"), is generating excitement due to its collaboration with pop sensation Charli XCX.

Background and Style

Ohs' versatility is evident in his films, as he typically takes on multiple roles behind the scenes. His unique visual approach, strong character development, and a blend of humour and melancholy are signature elements of his work. He is part of a new wave of American independent filmmakers who often produce their projects with minimal budgets and small crews.
