Laurits Munch-Petersen’s zodiac sign is Cancer. According to astrologers, the sign of Cancer belongs to the element of Water, just like Scorpio and Pisces. Guided by emotion and their heart, they could have a hard time blending into the world around them. Being ruled by the Moon, phases of the lunar cycle deepen their internal mysteries and create fleeting emotional patterns that are beyond their control. As children, they don't have enough coping and defensive mechanisms for the outer world, and have to be approached with care and understanding, for that is what they give in return.
Laurits Munch-Petersen was born in the Year of the Ox. Another of the powerful Chinese Zodiac signs, the Ox is steadfast, solid, a goal-oriented leader, detail-oriented, hard-working, stubborn, serious and introverted but can feel lonely and insecure. Takes comfort in friends and family and is a reliable, protective and strong companion. Compatible with Snake or Rooster.
Oscar-winning Danish director Laurits Munch-Petersen was born on the island of Bornholm and raised in Copenhagen. From an early age he started painting and drawing and believed to be a painter like his father.
But he realized that this job was too lonely and imagined that film making would be like painting, just with people as colors. At age 15 he lived in Mexico for one year with his parents. This stay inspired him to go back 7 years later to shoot his first professional film "The Circle" (1996) in the desert of Oaxaca.
At age 29 he won an Oscar for his graduation film "Between Us" from The National Film School of Denmark. The year after he made first his feature film "Ambulance" (2005) for Nordisk Film and has since written and directed both fiction, documentary and a some rare mixes in between.
He believes that fiction is staged fantasy and documentary is staged reality. Only subjective truth exists.
