Takis Candilis, born in October 1954, has been a TV man, movie producer and TV program director.

He is the son of the Greek architect George Candilis.

He was only 17 when he received a financial support from CNC (the French cinema comity) for his first scenario.

His first film, produced while he was graduating, will be selected in many film festivals around the world, confirming his passion for movies.

In 1982, he directed and produced a film called TRANSIT starring Richard Bohringer. The movie is selected at the CANNES Festival. The same year TRANSIT will open the festival ‘’Jeune cinéma’’ at Hyères.

This year, Takis Candilis is back in Cannes to reward new talents with the ‘’espoirs Chopard’’ trophy.
