Short Biography Roy Dames
Born in Heemskerk. He has been working as a producer of TV documentaries since 1986 and as a producer/director since 1993. He produced and made many TV documentaries (series) about social and societal issues from a "human interest" approach. For his documentaries he tries to show what is normally not shown. His films have a shooting period of many years, which means that a bond of trust develops between Dames and his characters.
He collaborates with almost all Dutch public broadcasters and the commercial channels SBS6, Net 5 and foreign channels such as BBC, SDR (Germany), ORF (Austrian TV). Films by Dames include 'Ik ben Mohammed' (2005, in collaboration with the NPS, about young Moroccan men in Rotterdam, nominated for the Golden Calf at the Netherlands Film Festival 2005), 'Ruud and Ria, until death do us part' (2002, in collaboration with the NPS) and 'Meiden van de Keileweg' (1999, in collaboration with Net 5, series about the life of street prostitutes in Rotterdam). With his film 'Foute Vrienden' he won the Image and Sound Award 2010, category culture.
