Michael Glawogger (b. 1959 in Graz, Austria) studied at the San Francisco Art Institute and the Vienna Film Academy. He is a director, a writer and a cinematographer and his work in each of these roles displays a broad spectrum. His recent works range from the literary adaptation "Kill Daddy Good Night" (2009) and comedies "Slugs" (2004) and "Contact High" (2009) to his essayist documentaries "Megacities" (1998) and "Wokingman's Death" (2005). He not only moves back and forth between cinematic forms and genres, but also between filmmaking, photography and writing - and between gentler and more forceful tones. With "Whores' Glory" he completes his trilogy on the world of work. Selected filmography: "Ant Street" (1995), "Megacities" (1998, doc), "France, Here We Come!" (2000, doc), "State of the Nation: Austria in Six Chapters" (2002, doc), "Slugs" (2004), "Wokingman's Death" (2005, doc, "Kino pavasaris"), "Slumming" (2006), "Kill Daddy Good Night" (2009), "Contact High" (2009), "Whores' Glory" (2011, doc, "Kino pavasaris").
