BIOGRAPHY

Robert Sarkies, born in 1969 in Dunedin, New Zealand, is a celebrated film director and scriptwriter known for his distinct storytelling that resonates with audiences and collectors alike. His debut feature film, *Scarfies* (1999), co-written with his brother Duncan Sarkies, blends comedy and thriller elements while capturing the essence of university life in Dunedin. This film not only garnered seven awards at the NZ Film Awards but also found a niche in the collector's market, especially after its U.S. release as *Crime 101*. The unique portrayal of youth culture and local flavor makes *Scarfies* a sought-after title for those keen on New Zealand cinema. Following *Scarfies*, Sarkies directed *Out of the Blue* (2006), a gripping true-life thriller based on the Aramoana Massacre. Its critical acclaim, including six Qantas Film and Television Awards and a 91% rating on Rotten Tomatoes, solidified its status as a significant film in New Zealand's cinematic landscape. Collectors prize both titles not only for their storytelling but also for their representation of a pivotal time and place in film history. Sarkies continues to be a vital voice in New Zealand cinema, making his works essential additions to any physical media collection.
