GUIDO COPPIS (Venray, 20-08-1998) is a self-taught filmmaker who was born in the small town of Venray, the Netherlands.

After finding out that attending the Netherlands Film Academy was not an option, he effectively created his own film school by making no less than fourteen short films in recent years, many of which have won awards and were selected at festivals worldwide. At age 19, he was selected by the Dutch Film Fund for their screenwriting talent development program, which resulted in his first feature.

At the tender age of 25, he made his feature film debut with BIJT, which premiered at IFFR 2024 in the prestigious Bright Future program, the film was nominated for 2 Golden Calves (Dutch Oscars) and was released in cinemas in june 2024.

Currently, Guido is working on multiple new projects.
