Biography

Who is Egoyan Atom?

Canadian stage and film director, writer, and producer, who made his career breakthrough with Exotica (1994), a film set primarily in and around the fictional Exotica strip club. His family moved to Canada when he was two years old. His work often explores themes of alienation and isolation, featuring characters whose interactions are mediated through technology, bureaucracy or other power structures. Egoyans films often follow non-linear plot structures, in which events are placed out of sequence in order to elicit specific emotional reactions from the audience by withholding key information. Egoyans most critically acclaimed film is the drama The Sweet Hereafter (1997), and his biggest commercial success is the erotic thriller Chloe (2009). Egoyan has been nominated for two Academy Awards: Best Director and Best Adapted Screenplay, both for The Sweet Hereafter. He also won several awards at Cannes Film Festival, Toronto International Film Festival and Genie Awards. In 2008 Egoyan received the Dan David Prize for "Creative Rendering of the Past". Egoyan received the Governor Generals Performing Arts Award, Canadas highest honour in the performing arts, in 2015. Link to Wikipedia biography
