Curtis Saretske
"Now what if I was to tell you this boy was Adolph Hitler? You wouldn't feel a damn bit sorry for him, would you?"
– The Kid with The Camera
b.1976
Prince George, BC
EDUCATION
Canadian Film Centre, Alliance Atlantis Film Resident Programme, Film Writer’s Lab
Emily Carr Institute of Art and Design, Film & Video
Once upon a time, there lived a boy named Curtis Saretske who was a Canadian Film Centre alumnus, a Praxis Screenplay Competition fellow and a Nicholl Fellowships in Screenwriting semifinalist.
He studied film and video at Emily Carr Institute of Art and Design in Vancouver and currently works in IT (his only other notable skill) as a Certified Apple Technician and Apple Certified Support Professional.
He hides somewhere in Toronto, with his wife, boy, and their two Japanese named cats.
Before he dies, he can be hired to write, story edit or direct (almost) anything – it's pathetic really.
Alternatively, you could help produce Curtis's screenplays, and he can direct them himself. Perhaps, this way he can find some meaningfulness and worth to his short, miserable and brutal life.
If you would like to help fund his films, please send him a line before it's too late.
Hurry, if you act now you'll receive a broken iPhone.
“Hate me in your room.”
