Director/Writer: Stefan Rust 23
Stefan comes from a Visual Arts background where he studied fine arts for 2 years at UKZN and prides himself in being an all rounded filmmaker. He loves to get his hands on every part of the film where he can. At 20, Stefan battled and overcame stage 3 Bone Cancer, which has made him have a huge appreciation for life and this can be seen in many of his film. “I love film because when I was sick I became interested in movies because of the way you could create these worlds. It's not just a 'painting' there are sounds, images and movement that go into making a movie.” Stefan has created many short films and has his own business called Rustic Films where he shoots videos of concerts, events and corporate work.

After graduating from AFDA Stefan wants to move to Cape Town with some of his crew memebrs to hopefully find work in film indusrty.
