Phil Grabsky

Phil Grabsky is a documentary filmmaker and founder of Brighton's Seventh Art Productions. His last film The Boy who Plays on the Buddhas of Bamiyan has been awarded with no less than ten prestigious awards worldwide. Grabsky is currently completing his latest film about Mozart - a documentary which is symbolic of Seventh Art's contribution to the production of high-profile art films. For Grabsky, researching In Search of Mozart involved travelling to ten countries and over 100 locations in his personal quest to find out who Mozart really was. This 'filmmaker on a search' approach to documentary-making marks a transition in the way Seventh Art creates its films since its establishment in 1985.
