Rene Maurin (born 1971, in Maribor, Slovenia) is a Slovene theatre director, film director and screenwriter.
Biography
During his studies of architecture in Graz, Austria he became interested in theatre and film. Leaving architecture studies he enrolled the Academy of Drama Arts in Zagreb, Croatia, where he finishes the studies under the mentorship of Georgij Paro and Tomislav Durbešić. He graduated with the first staging of the play IT, by a young Slovene author Rok Vilčnik, which was awarded for the Best new Slovene play at the Week of Slovenian Drama in the year 2000.
After the graduation he focused primarily on documentary and semi-documentary film in the production of Radio-Television Slovenia. In 2001 he took over the artistic leadership of Ptuj City Theatre which he led until 2008.[1] Notably, in his mandate the neoclassical theatre building was completely renovated after almost hundred years.[2]
In 2015 he obtains a MA degree in film studies at the Academy of Theatre, Radio, Film and Television (Ljubljana), following the production of the short feature film Bright Black. As of 2012 he is a guest professor at the Institute for Media communication at University of Maribor [3] in Slovenia and writes for several newspapers and magazines.
He lives in Maribor and Ljubljana, Slovenia and directs mostly in Slovenia and Croatia.
