I considered this to be a notable person initially based pretty much only upon the putative Golden Berlin Bear award. I entered this into Berlin International Film Festival, but this diff shows it has been removed as "not in the list". Accordingly I wish to nominate this article for a consensus to be reached, but feel I should remain neutral because of my prior involvement with the article.

- Keep The Berlin Film Festival's site here: http://www.berlinale.de/en/archiv/jahresarchive/2007/05_boulevard_2007/05_Boulevard-Detail_2007_4933.html does back up that he did win the Golden Bear for his short film "Raak", in 2007. He also appears to have made another film, Skin, for which an actor in the film won the Golden Calf award from the Nederlands Film Festival in 2008, see here: http://www.filmfestival.nl/nff/gouden-kalf/gouden-kalf-winnaars-eerdere-edities/ That seems like enough evidence of notability to me.
